    Hi!

            I'm a newbie in SPARC hardware, but that didn't stop to try Suse 7.3 for
    Sparc :). After reading a few Howto's I was able to boot the CDROM. But
    (there's always one), after the kernel's boot, the install programa (YaSt 2)
    executes, an run a couple of tests.. One of them is a hardware test, that
    freeze at "ide.1.7".. I try sending kernel parameters, but is useless....
            The hardware is a Enterprise 3500 with 2Gb RAM, 4 disk Sun 18Gb and a CDROM
    drive.
            Can anybody tell me, if that happen already... I don't know what else should
    I try...

            Thanx in advance!

            PD: The system is actually running Solaris 2.6.
