Have the same problem on Sun Sparc V240 server. Tried the ide=nodma, tried to modprobe all modules available for IDE controllers and cdroms, but can not find it.
A solution would be to be able to download a netinstall mini.iso for Sparc with ubuntu 8.10, that unfortunately is not available. A supported 7.10 is available and worked great to install from, somehow I cant upgrade this to 8.04 and then 8.10 that was my plan. With just installed the core packages the do-release-update complain about a english languagepackage is broken, but its not according the utils. The unsupported mini.iso 8.04 just hangs after loading kernel. -- intrepid doesn't detect ide disk and cdrom on Sun Blade 150 (sparc) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296263 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
