Hi Frans,
The output of prtconf is attached. I've also attached a chunk of the
syslog which shows the ethernet cards. This particular system (for
reasons unknown to me- it was a hand-me-down) has about 7 ethernet ports
and a dozen scsi interfaces. One bunch of ethernet ports is a group of

Hi Frans,
OK, I grabbed the latest (March 14th) etch network installer from the
link location below. I ran the installer with debconf/priority=medium as
requested. The CDROM detection worked, as did detection of the sunhme
(happy meal) network cards. There was one non-fatal error: during the

Hi Jim and Frans,
Thanks very much for the follow-up and suggestions. For the sake of
creating a useful record I'll let you know what happened here.
I ended up getting this working using the standard sarge minimal-cd net
installer, which was the thing that failed in the first place. To get it

Hi Frans,
Thanks for this info. I actually tried the latest etch cd yesterday but
it failed also (to mount the CD) even though it seems to explicity
handle SCSI cdrom devices. (At least one gets that impression from the
messages that come up that it does.) So I wonder now exactly what the

Hi,
I've just been trying to install sarge from cdrom on a Sun Enterprise
4000 and have the same error mentioned in this bug. The problem in this

ide. Is this indeed the same problem? Doing a net boot is difficult for
me, so
