Hi.. =20 I'm trying to install FreeBSD 5.0 on a Sun Ultra 10 Sparc64 box.. :-\ =20 I've read some stuff about no consoll support.. but succeeded in = installing the operative system and getting network. =20 The installation-meny from hell is hackable with this tip.. (got it off = a maillist) -------------------------------------------------------------------------= ------------------------------- Choose termtyp 1 in the installationsprompt. Use Ctrl-N and Ctrl-P to move up and down.. you'll see the mouse pointer = flash quickly at the alternetive that's choosen. Then use TAB to move between windows. Enter/Space to choose stuff and Ctrl-D to delete. -------------------------------------------------------------------------= ------------------------------- =20 Next step after getting network up n running is XFree86.. When tryin' to install from /usr/ports/x11/XFree86 it doesnt go very = well though.. I get acouple of critical Error 1 in the (final stage?!) of the = compilation resulting in failure of the installation. =20 (I don't got the errors i get but on request i can reproduce em.. (take = 3 hours of compiling to get em that's why i dont include em here)) =20 Anyone here that succeeded in installing FreeBSD for Sun Ultra 5/10? or = got any experience that is relevant and might be of help? =20 Best regards, //Magnus Glantz =20 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
