Please coordinate with Ben Collins, he's the one who has always committed changes to the boot-sparc script used in debian-cd to make bootable cd images. If you have his agreement, you could as well commit your change yourself then. If you don't manage to get in touch with Ben then just post your patch to debian-cd for review and we'll apply it.

I'm working with BenC to get the Sparc kernels done such that they include the System.map for us. Then we need to point depmod to the right System.map for each architecture. (Recall that sun4u needs 64 bit kernels and sun4m cannot have them). See bug 227644 - I'm hoping today to get the pieces into linux-kernel-d-i for Sparc.

You will need to set up a mirror on the local system that at least contains those packages that are needed for the businesscard or netinst cd. - If all else fails, you can take a look at the i386 rules in d-i; you'll find that there are rules there to make a bootable netinst CD image, you could create something similar for sparc for testing purposes.

building d-i for sparc
After not doing anything on it for six weeks, I'm again trying to get debian-installer working on sparc. First iritation was needing to rebuild python2.3, as it's a dependancy of a build-dendancy. (Apparently the sparc autobuilder is still down.) That took 14 hours to compile. I also had to compile netfcg, since the udebs are missing from the archives. Good news: make image TYPE=cdrom now works. Bad news: make image TYPE=netboot doesn't. Bug filed. Unfortunatly, I can't seem to find anything resembling an iso image to burn to see how far it would get. (The silo-installer udeb is still needed to make it usable.) Am I just overlooking something, or is this a symtom of d-i still being broken on sparc? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
