I've got a Sun SPARC enterprise T5120 that is still waiting for a bootloader after having installed Debian (since silo didn't get installed). Does anyone here have experience with GRUB for SPARC? Is GRUB installable/usable? How do I install it?
Which images did you use to install Debian onto your SPARC? The current images should install just fine and also install SILO automatically. I verified that with the images that are currently available for download from [1]. Regarding GRUB, there is a howto for installing it on Eric's wiki [2]. But you will still have to build GRUB from source from Eric's tree as most of the patches haven't been merged yet, unfortunately :(. Adrian
