Comments/Problems:
I tried a VGA/keyboard install first, but the installer came up
monochrome, making it impossible to see what line was highlighted, etc.
So, I setup serial console instead.
The system hangs hung for a very long time while loading the via82cxxx
IDE driver (~100 seconds). I thought the system was hung, but it
eventually returned. My system has no devices that require the via82cxxx
driver.
My system has a fibre channel controller that requires the qla2200
driver. Though this driver is in our 2.6.15 kernel images, it is not in
the linux-kernel-di-sparc-2.6 scsi packages. I used wget to fetch and
load this driver by hand.
I have a sym53c8xx card in my system, but it has no disks attached to
it. This driver is constantly going through the scsi ABORT/DEVICE
RESET/SCSI BUS reset path while loaded.
The partitioner has ugly ascii boxes after the partition listings.
An install of testing fails because it tries and fails to install a
2.6.12 kernel, but that's probably expected. I got further with sid.
When it tries to pull packages off the cdrom, I get an error that it
couldn't fine a Release file on the cdrom. I dropped to a shell &
unmounted the cdrom so that the installation would try the network
instead.
The sid kernel fails to install because yaird fails. I worked around
this[1] at the shell by using initramfs-tools instead.
Probably due to the above, silo installer failed to install. I did this
by hand.
When the system came back up, I got a bunch of udev messages[2] on the
console, and then a panic because init died. But, I guess I can't blame
d-i - this was because I used initramfs-tools instead of yaird.
