Subject: Sparc 5
I just got a Sparc 5 from work. It has a network card, a CD ROM, a =
Floppy, a hard drive, a tape drive (not needed), keyboard, mouse =
(optical), and a monitor. I would like to get Debian on it, but it seems =
that when I boot up it is configured to look at only the hard drive. How =
do I change this? I have make copies of the two disks from Debian that I =
have to boot from, then I was hoping to install from the internet. Since =
I have a CD ROM I was also thinking about use it but that will mean I =
need a bootable CD ROM. I have no idea how to get a bootable CD ROM. But =
again this leads to the basic problem of how to get the system to boot =
from something other than the hard drive.
Any ideas?
David
