There is some good info in the "ultrapenguin" html files
located on the RedHat site at:
/pub/mirrors/ultra/Users-Guide/
~12 small files with gif background you can d/l and
read at your own convenience.
I realize Sparc 10 isn't ultra but this is good info.
Sparc 10 install is the "easiest" RH install I have ever
done!
Be aware, Linux will reference the Hard Disks in order
no matter what their "Target ID" is.
If you have HDs in Target 1 and 3 and 5 with a CD in
Target 4
Target 1 will be /dev/sda
Target 3 will be /dev/sdb
Target 5 will be /dev/sdc
CDrom will be /dev/scd0
If you ever add a HD at Target 2, you will Reconfigure Linux ;)
Make partition "3" "Whole DISK" (Trust me!)
Do NOT make swap start with cylinder 0 (zero)
Boot up your sparc, hit "Stop A" and at the
{ok} probe-scsi-all <cr>
to see your hardware before you load up.
Plug your RedHat 4.2 CD into the drive and:
{ok} boot cdrom
You'll be glad you did.
(If you can tell me how to "Sucessfully load an Ultra_10" or Ultra_II",
I'll "Owe you Big-Time"(tm)).
