From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Ryan Cresawn Date: Wed, 04 Nov 1998 20:18:43 +0000 Subject: post-installation troubles Message-Id: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: ultralinux@vger.kernel.org On November 2nd I downloaded ultrapenguin-1.0.9 to attempt to install on my Ultra 2 Creator 3D. Here is how that installation went. Linux booted over the network and appeared to install correctly. After installation the computer rebooted and I typed "boot disk1", since my first disk is for Solaris. I got the SILO prompt. I waited and then the kernel loaded and booted. The last thing printed to the screen follows. eth0: HAPPY MEAL (SBUS) 10/100baseT Ethernet 08:00:20:a0:aa:f7 eth0: Link is up using internal transceiver at 10 Mb/s, Half Duplex. At this point it appears as though the computer is hung, however that's not quite true. I went to another computer on the network and was able to ping it. I then attempted to rlogin, which, to my surprise, brought up a login prompt! I tried to log in as "root", however it didn't work. I assume this is because by default "root" logins over the network are disabled. Finally, I attempted to boot single user in hopes that a shell would be started so that I could turn on some gettys, however no shell was ever started. Bummer. If I can provide some more information to assist with this problem I will be happy to do so. -- Ryan
