Hi, this'll teach me to keep a better local archive, as this *should* be a response to my earlier post reguarding a sparcstation10 install that was stuck in a welcome screen loop (after "determining what to do next" it kept returning to the install intro rather than configure keyboard)
I switched to the terminal on tty2 and ran fdisk. There was no Sun disklabel on the drive (it had come out of a closet, but I thought it'd been in a Sun last), I fixed this and partitioned the drive. When I went back to tty1 and hit enter again it brought me to the "initialize and activate swap partition" option, which was wrong as it skipped several steps, but things went along ok from there. Don't have any idea what the cause was or if it's reproducible enough to submit as a bug, but I figured I'd pust the solution incase s.o.'s searching the archive with this problem. -Jon
