- I am having the following problem.
-
- I just installed an Sbus ethernet card in our Sparc 2 server, due to the
- length of our thinnet. Diskless sparcs boot OK from the 2nd ethernet
- interface, but complain about /tftpboot after logging in. When I try to
- boot the Sun 3's as Xterminals, running Xkernel 1.4, they do OK to the point
- of starting the X server. They then hang, and complain about the server
- not responding. Am I missing something obvious? I've changed the host files,
- bootparams, etc...
-
- Thanks

- Opinionated and tunnel-visioned? Darn right. But then, my employer really
- doesn't know what I'm talking about anyway...
