Check that your monitor can support 1024 x 768. I had the same issue with my Ultra 5 when plugged into a 15" LCD panel.

I initially was stumped with being unable to boot the CDs I bought from the excellent people at Linuxemporium, but that's now resolved- type 'rescue' at the prompt. I can then install a basic system off the first CD, it reboots OK, and starts... It then gets to the first screen in the configuration section, and when I hit return at the <OK> it hangs. It needs a power-cycle to get going again. No keyboard Stop-A, no LEDs, nothing. Before I hit return at that prompt, I can Alt-F2 and login as root and do various stuff, but switch back to the main console and hit enter and it's dead as a dead thing. I've tried 2 different Ultra 5's now - one was a 360MHz with 512MB of 60ns memory, the other a 333 MHz with 512MB of (ordinary I guess) memory. Both have been running Solaris 7 for a year or 2 before today. Been using Debian on Intel for many years, (and Sunos/Solaris for even longer) but this is the forst time I've tried Linux on a Sparc. Any clues appreciated. Thanks, Gordon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
