While we're at it, you mentioned earlier that you tried Ubuntu Dapper (6.06) with 2.6.15 which also failed miserably - Ubuntu shipped a few more sparc releases other than that one, so you may get lucky with another one. A quick Google tells me that their 7.04 and 7.10 releases still had sparc, so try and find installer images from those. -- 2. That which causes joy or happiness. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
