I wasn't aware of this --c . That helped then, and I was able to go on with the installation. I've seen, you already fixed it in CVS, thanks. But then later, while installing the packages, I got this: base51.tgz 98% |************************************ | 56481 KB 00:06 ETAgzip: stdout: Broken pipe ftp: -: short write base51.tgz 98% |************************************ | 56481 KB 09:19 Segmentation fault (core dumped) 'base51.tgz' did not install correctly. The same happended for the xetc51.tgz (I know X11 is not supported yet) When the installer was done with all the sets, I just went ahead, trying to reinstall both again, but they failed the same way again. Is this due to the processor bugs you mentioned, one of those instabilities? Since my processor is: cpu0 at mainbus0: MIPS R4000 CPU rev 2.2 100 MHz, R4010 FPC rev 0.0 cpu0: cache L1-I 8KB D 8KB direct, L2 1024KB direct and this one may have such weirdo processor bugs you mentioned in your initial mail, and may run unstable. going on, I had again boot from tftp due to the light: bootp()bootecoff bootp()bsd.IP22 --c While in the installer, at the point where I configure the disks, it showed me sd0, sd1, and sd2. sd0 and sd1, were easily configured, until it came to sd2, where it did hang for a long time, unsuccessfully trying to read the disk layout. Only afterwards I recognized, this sd2 is not a disk, but is the Floptical drive installed in the box. I don't know whether there is an easy way to prevent the installer from trying to install on such device, or maybe its just easier to mention that as a limitation in the INSTALL.sgi file. # dmesg [ using 308880 bytes of bsd ELF symbol table ] Copyright (c) 1982, 1986, 1989, 1991, 1993 The Regents of the University of California.
