You need to connect a serial console or your pc/latop and use HyperTerm to install. You then need to set the Openprom to the serial console. setenv input-device ttyS0 setenv output-device ttyS0 Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: sparc-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:sparc-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Matthias Runge Sent: Tuesday, January 25, 2011 2:44 PM To: sparc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Install failure on Sun Blade 100 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 On 01/24/2011 10:34 PM, Fabio M.

Sadly, I was hit by another bug(?): System boots until it halts with the message console: colour dummy device 80x25 console [tty0] enabled, bootconsole disabled looks like system switches to a console, I'm unable to view. Is there a chance to redirect the console to serial console (or else?) I'm currently downloading latest debian-install build. If booting this, I'l put a note here.
