Hi I know this problem has been brought up a few times before, but I have not been able to solve it yet on my machine...
I am trying to install Woody on an Ultra 1 by booting from floppies, followed by an http install (as my cd drive is very ropey). This works fine with the Potato disks, and I can boot from the Potato rescue floppy and load the Woody root floppy, so I'm assuming the problem is with the Woody rescue disk. I have tried using the rescue.bin image from the main download site and also from Ben Collins' site: http://auric.debian.org/~bcollins/disks-sparc/current/sun4u/images-1.44/resc ue.bin I have also tried downloading and RaWrite-ing the disks several times, but I always get the same result: after I insert the root floppy and hit enter, the machine hangs and won't respond to the keyboard (I am not using a terminal on the serial port like some others who have had this problem before), so I have to cycle the power. I don't think I can use TFTP as I am squatting on my works network and don't feel confident about setting up the required server stuff on my windows machine. any advice much appreciated... thanks Stu Yarrow -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
