hello,
i managed to netboot my sparc5 (axil 245) from a tftp image on my p2 machine. the sparc5 is now sitting at the prompt.
but what do i do now ?
can i simply take the installation handbook stuff and start installing? i.e. configuring the hard drive, fstab, downloading stuff, etc... ?
thanks in advance. _________________ "Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" -- Patrick Henry, 1775 |

ok i am trying to install stuff by following the handbook. i managed to use fdisk to configure the disks and my eth0 works fine.
but this tftp image does not have ftp, ssh, links2, lynx, etc. how the heck do i go "out" and get "stuff" ?
or does someone have a more "juiced" tftp boot image ?
help please! _________________ "Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" -- Patrick Henry, 1775 |
