- Hi.
-
- I was playing around with an old SUN-2, and tried to boot it diskless from a
- 3/280 running 4.1.1_U1. It boots ok until after doing the root on server:,
- swap on server:,dump on server: part , then it crashes with some PROT VIOL
- or if it was access violation. I know some versions of PROM doesn't run
- version 4 of SunOS correctly. Does anybody know which PROMs I should have,
- and if there are any other things that make this impossible ( not just
- unsupported, which this configuration of course is) ?
