hi, thank you very much for the information.
when i mount the iso-files on another linux machine, what can i do with it? an iso file is only a cd-rom file to be burned, but not boot file etc... first i need the cd files. but the cd files cannot be read on a normal cdrom drive, because the sparc cd-rom drive has different blocksize. please give me some more step by step instructions for the installation. thanks, michael On 25 Apr 2002 at 22:03, Yedidia Klein wrote: Hi, I installed Suse linux on my sparc without cdrom by : - mounting the iso files on another linux machine (-o loop) option - booting the sparc from the network (boot network on open boot prompt) and using a bootb and dhcp server on another linux machine with the tftp image that is on the cd. - telling the install soft that the source is NFS (and exporting is via NFS from the other linux) if u need more info - let me know. --Yedidia On Thursday 25 April 2002 13:09, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > hello, > > I would like to install the sparc suse linux version on my old sparc > machine. unfortunately, i don't have a sparc conforming cdrom > drive. how can i install the iso without having a cd-rom drive on my > sparc machine, but on any other i386 linux machine or windows > machine. > > thanks in advance. > > m. neaga Numerik Software GmbH Dr. Michael Neaga Rettigstr. 6 D-76530 Baden-Baden Tel.: 07221 949217 Fax: 07221 949218 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
