Not sure, try using the sun4cdm/linux-a.out and the root.tar.gz (from an NFS export) to boot the system with: boot net ip=<your_ip> nfsroot=<nfs_server_ip>:<path_to_root> -- -----------=======-=-======-=========-----------=====------------=-=------ / Ben Collins -- ...on that fantastic voyage... -- Debian GNU/Linux \ ` [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ' `---=========------=======-------------=-=-----=-===-======-------=--=---'
