Subject: sparc 5 without floppy network install

    I am trying to do a network install of suse to a sparc 5 which has no
    floppy drive. I have set up another system as a boot server and downloaded
    Joshua Uziel's "floppy32" file from http://suse.com/~uzi/sparc/

    When the sparc 5 loads the image it says " file just loaded is not executable".
    Is there a tftpboot image anywhere for suse 7 (sparc) ?

    Thanks for your help,

    Stephen.
