Dear list,
I yust bought a Sparc5/170 and after some usefull tips from some of you, I
could install the operating system without any significant problems.
Due to the fact, that I do not intend to install another OpSys, I decided
to boot with the MBR. So I told it to YaST2.
After installing it succesfully and effective connection to my private
network I drove the machine down to test the behavior of my Sparc during
the reboot
Now the issue: This machine does'nt wont to boot.
So I've seen, while booting it with the rescue system, there are some
flags, dedicated to the spezific partitions - I've made more of them - to
see in the fdisk.
My assumption now is, that I have to switch one of them to tell the
machine the boot partition.
Anyone out there, who could give me a advice to tune for proper booting?
best regards
