|
|
Hey guys, I'm using a sparc Ultra 1/170 sun4u, trying to install gentoo 1.4
i get the silo boot and type "gentoo" and it gives me a not found error. the silo.conf on the cd is default.
any ideas? |

a few Qs
did you just use "boot cdrom" from the bootprom prompt?
do you have a cd-rom which is known-bootable on sparc? they can be picky.
which version of the gentoo CD are you using?
does your ultra1 have a known-good hard disk?
any odd hardware in it? what kind of frame buffer? _________________ -Tim Smith |
