Hello I'm having trouble installing slink on a sparc lx using a sony cdu-561 cdrom. I can boot from the debian cd and start setup. But, once i get to the point where I am supposed to install the resc1440.bin image from the cdrom to the harddrive, it fails.
For what it matters, I received one bare bones lx for free - it did have 32 megs of memory in it. And I bought another lx with memory and disk. I bought an additional scsi-2 hard disk and cdrom. I've played the sway game and from what I can tell the units, disks, and cdroms are ok. The lx which came with a sun os hard disk works in either lx unit. Ditto for the memory. I also tested the cdrom with a win95 scsi computer and it works. The remaining facts: The harddisk is a seagate and the cdrom is a sony cdu-561a. Here are the settings for each drive. harddisk id=3 parity enabled terminators power from scsi bus. terminators enabled. enable motor start. cdrom id=6 parity enabled terminators are missing. But, I have it an external case with a non-active terminator plug attached. This device has a enable/prevent jumper which I've tried both ways and it doesn't seem to do anything. (I'm curious as to what this thing is also.)
