directly useful at the moment...unless I want to clobber a disk with a bootable sparc64 image, I suppose. I tried editing the boot command in GRUB on the disc to say 'set options="priority=high nomsi"', but it didn't affect the behavior. I could blacklist the niu

em's, whether it's set to true or false. (Amusingly, the "niu" driver has special casing for this and instead of setting everything to e.g. 00:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa, sets the first port to 00:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa, second to 00:aa:aa:aa:aa:ab, and so on.) - Rich On Tue, Nov 16, 2021 at 3:39 A

At least on my old Netra T1, SILO has never believed in booting vmlinuz, only vmlinux, and faults similarly if you try. So if it just recently started faulting that way for you, perhaps any glue that knew to unpack vmlinuz into vmlinux isn't working? - Rich On Sun, Jan 23, 2022 at 1:30 PM

a problem related to kernel shared memory being set too low. Had the same issue on my SS5. You need to up the limit in /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax Stick something like this in /etc/sysctl.conf and you should be fine (worked for me on my SS5 with 104MB RAM). kernel/shmmax=4000 Hope this helps, Rich.
