Public bug reported:
I am attempting to install Ubuntu 9.04 from the following netboot image:
http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/jaunty/main/installer-
sparc/current/images/netboot/boot.img
The server loads the image and then fails back to the OpenBoot prompt with the
following error:
{0} ok boot net:dhcp,192.168.0.12,ubuntu-jaunty-sparc-boot.img
Boot device:
/virtual-devi...@100/channel-devi...@200/netw...@0:dhcp,192.168.0.12,ubuntu-jaunty-sparc-boot.img
ERROR: /packages/obp-tftp: Last Trap: Fast Data Access MMU Miss
The older intrepid and hardy netboot images will load, but then fail later
while detecting disks.
The gutsy netboot image loads, detects disks, and fully installs. I can then
upgrade the install all the way up to jaunty, but this is very inefficient.
I am not sure if base-installer is the proper package to report this
against. I also cannot determine how the netboot images are being
built. If someone can provide instructions I will be happy to work at
building new netboot images and test them.
** Affects: base-installer (Ubuntu)
