I am attempting to net boot a sparcstation 2 (SS2) from an NT box. I have successfully configured RARP and TFTP servers on the NT box, and the SS2 has (seemingly) successfully managed to copy the boot image - tftpboot.img (which I renamed to 'ip-address-in-hex.SUN4C'). When beginning to boot though, the SS2 freezes. Below is a copy of the output (note that I have a serial connection to the SS2 on ttya):
ok boot net console=ttya Boot device: /sbus/[EMAIL PROTECTED],c00000 File and args: console=ttya 307c00 Using /dev/ttya as console. Booting Linux... I have attempted using the tftpboot.img file contained in both the woody and potato distributions. Interestingly, when I attempted to boot from linux-a.out (also renamed to 'ip-address-in-hex.SUN4C'), I did make it past the 'Booting Linux...' message and received the regular slurry of diagnostics - of course I wasn't able to actually boot the kernel though. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Brennan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
