SuSE 7.3 will not (yet) support the UltraSPARC-III+ ... davem recently got his hands on one and came with a patch for it. Debian has a (supposedly) working boot image. Your best bet for installing SuSE 7.3 would be to build up your own netboot image and install the distribution packages by hand... but that's semi-time consuming. So, other than that, you can just wait for SuSE 8.1 ... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
