alan@coreboarder.net said: <quote> Hi, I'm geting the following error message from my Sun Blade 100 when I try to install the latest release base on ISO: 5.0 20030119-SNAP-sparc64-disc.iso . "unable to transfer the base distribution from acdo" I am able to get it to successfully write the file system to the drive but that is all. [elided] </quote> I get the same thing after booting the live file system: 5.0-20030119-SNAP-sparc64-disc2.iso (either from the CD on the Ultra 5 or via NFS from a -STABLE PIII), and the install iso: 5.0-20030119-SNAP-sparc64-miniinst.iso gives me the following (Ultra 5, both iso images had correct md5): <snip> ok boot cdrom Resetting ...
