I am trying to install SuSE SPARC GNU/Linux on one of the first Sun Ultra 1 boards (147 MHz) however with a SBUS expansion bus, hence the video card is not recognized by the installer, yast2... I connected a console to the serial port and am able to interact with the installer to some degree, in text mode, however, something causes it to hang when the program appears to be performing accounting of packages... during the package selection stage... Any hints to get through this installation? I am assuming this is the best SPARC installation available... like no sense in going back to RH's zoot, right? Is there a better way to do this? I have a SuSE on Intel on the same network. It is running and happy. Can that machine be of use? thx J -- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
