Booting from CDROM seems difficult. Netbooting works since blathijs replaced the NVRAM battery.
Specs
- 128MB ram
- 9.1GB harddisk but layout of the old 2.2GB one
- UltraSPARC 167MHz
- Debian 7
This machines is hooked up to the LDAP for user management, but also has a local root user with the familiar password. ;)
Todo
- Fix hard disk layout so that whole disk can be used, or maybe use an ever bigger one
Netboot tips and tricks
This information can be useful when reinstalling:
On some machine in the network
- Run a rarp server
- Put this line in /etc/ethers (MAC address of Ultra 1 and a free ip address in our range)
8:0:20:82:ca:1a 192.168.1.200
- Put a line in /etc/hosts with hostname/ip
On the TFTP server
- Download boot.img from Debian (Debian 6 works for this machine, Debian 7 doesn't)
- Check /var/log/daemon.log for the filename requested by our Ultra 1
- Rename boot.img or make a symlink
Now the installer should start when you type "boot net" in OpenBoot
