|
|
I couldn't find any reference to this directly in any post, so I thought I'd post a quick question about it myself.
After unpacking the stage1 tarball, I moved on to the next step in the install doc, which reads:
Code: | # mount -o bind /proc proc |
When I run this, I get:
Code: | mount: Mounting /proc on /target/proc failed: Block device required |
Both source and destination exist:
Code: | # ls -ld /proc /target/proc
dr-xr-xr-x 19 root root 0 May 25 01:45 /proc
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 May 25 02:40 /target/proc |
Any ideas? I don't know what info you might need, but it's a SPARCstation 10. Please let me know if any more info would be helpful, and thanks in advance for any responses.

An alternative you can try to that is
mount -t proc proc /target/proc
Also that code segment assumes you are in the /target directory (which I'm guessing you were).
Let me know how you make out. |

Yea, I found that out, and also a newer Debian tftpboot image with a 2.4.20 kernel. I've been able to chroot into the untarred stage1 tree, as well, and it's now running bootstrap.sh, after solving some tricky drive space problems. I should be done in a month or so, at the rate it's going now. =)
And, as mentioned in the other thread I posted on, I've gotten some great help in #gentoo-sparc on irc.freenode.net, from how to create my own tftpboot image with cross-compiled tools to a whole range of other great tips. In fact, I see you in there now, although you've been silent the whole time I've been talking with others this weekend. =) AFK, I suppose.
Thanks for the help. I'll be running Gentoo on my SPARCstation 10 before I know it!
