This machine has no graphical card so I connect to the serial port via another linux machine and minicom. When booting with 'boot net serial' all works fine except when at the end the install program asks to install SILO, but fails with "mount failed: Device or resource busy". Apparently I can't switch tty's with minicom to get at a shell prompt to see what's happening ? I did the same install on an other ultra (with graphical card) without any problem P.S. bootimage is tftp-ed and install via nfs mount. Kris -- Kris Boulez kris@belbone.be
