Thanks for looking into this, even if it's not now :) Unfortunately AFAIR you're the only sparc guy on the list here or am I wrong? For me this isn't that important. For the 1.97 release I wouldn't anyway declare sparc as a fully stable port. And in Debian powerpc and sparc isn't that much used. -- Felix Zielcke Proud Debian Maintainer and GNU GRUB developer
