I've got a sparcstation 5 that I am trying to install debian on. I am connecting to the sparc with a serial console.
I have created the boot floppy from rescue.bin and asked it to boot from the floppy. The sparc starts to boot from the disk that I have made and finally comes up with: floppy0: WARNING disk change called early VFS: Insert root floppy disk to be loaded into RAM disk and press ENTER I insert the root disk and press enter but nothing happens. It just seems to lock up, I can't even send a BREAK to it. Can anyone shed any light on what's going wrong, and more importantly, how I can fix the problem? I hope that someone can help me, and if I can give any more useful info then let me know as its the first time I've ever used a mailing list. thanks in advance, Dan
