Please try one of the newer LiveCD available in /gentoo/experimental/sparc/livecd/sparc64 Please try one of the newer LiveCD available in /gentoo/experimental/sparc/livecd/sparc64 If you try one of the LiveCDs from http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/experimental/sparc/livecd/sparc64/, particularly the later ones, does it boot for you? Need more info before I can proceed. Feel free to re-open. Thanks. After having tried almost all the different LiveCD's without any success, I changed the CDROM drive (mostly by chance, because I wanted to boot from a CDRW which this drive couldn't read) and then it worked fine! So it seems it was a hardware problem with the old Apple SCSI CDROM I was using. Sorry for the noise. Moving these so we can remove the "Install CD" component from "Gentoo Linux". I apologize to everyone for this spam, but according to the bugzilla developers, this is the only reasonable way to do this. |
