Fwd: Sun Ultra 25 / Debian 12 install/progress

Hi Adrian,

the Sun Ultra 25 was the last Sun desktop system they did, no more Sun
propietary connectors just USB. And yes, I did try to connect and
additional Lenovo USB kbd/mouse (additional as else the Sun warns with a
power failure on the USB which it would use to output to the serial port).

Found the harness and will hopefully give it a try later this evening (via
serial). Will keep you updated on how things move forward.

Cheers

Iggi
