Excellent, so basically I can install Debian on my Sun. BTW, uname -a says that the machine is sun4m; what kind of Sun is that? LX? There's no letter printed at the front panel of the machine. I said "classic", but actually it was a wild guess. > type of the SPARC Station 1 that I have been running Debian on succesfully > (including the latest unstable version of Debian, potato). Is there any ftp site that I can download the Debian for Sun kernel file? I don't have the CDs yet, but I'd like to boot the machine using Debian and see how the procedure goes. Oki
