ive not once gotten a successful boot with grub2
I will try it once or twice befove giving up and using silo.
Is the configuration above theoretically correct? I will use /dev/sda1
for /boot .

silo only needs the 32 bit glibc installed and only then to actually run the
silo command there would be no problems
I expected it to be so.

No one has tested it. binaries are bigger, which in turn means it takes
longer to load and run, uses more ram, and you do not gain additional cpu
features by doing it, x86_64 you gain access to additional registers and
other thinsg that make it worthwhile. sparc64 you don't
So actually it does not make any sense to keep development/sparc64 tree?
Anyway switching between 64 and 32 bits with use of yum is not very
difficult. Maybe I will do it once the machine is running. I am copying
my sparc64 tree on my new logical volumes (on top of RAID6 and RAID5
MDs).

This should be taken to the fedora sparc list

grub2 is designed to dynamically build the config. and last i tried that
dynamic building did not work at all on fedora as the grub2 folks made
assumptions about how to work out disks that changed. at a rough glance it
looks like its likely right.

We build the sparc64 tree because we have to. to build anything 64 bit we
have to build everything 64 bit. if you need access to more than 4gb ram per
process. say a big database then the 64 bit versions will come in handy.
thats really the only place you get a win with 64 bit binaries.

dracut is not finding your root filesystem correctly. or its not able to find
init on the root filesystem
does init=/bin/bash appended get you a shell?
you could also boot into resue mode and turn quiet off to get more debigging
info.

Thanks for help. I knew how to replace init but I have forgotten that
this may be a good way to debug.
Surprisingly when I use bash instead of init everything looks normal
(dracut does not lie that it mounted the root fs) and I am able to
finish booting using exec /sbin/init .
Now I try to use "rdshell rdinitdebug rdinfo debug selinux=0
root=/dev/sys/root init=/bin/bash" in silo and I got quite a lot of
debugging information but when I managed to run init by hand I hurried
to revive all services on this machine, which were dead for two days.
I will try to continue the fight next week. I cannot keep the machine in
such unfinished state for long because the serial console is not always
reliable and in some cases break does not get to the "ok" prompt.
I gave up with GRUB2 but maybe I will try again. Actually I managed to
configure it somehow but I could not actually boot the disk. But maybe
it was not the GRUB2 fault because I got the same problem when I moved
to SILO. I tried to boot disk, disk:a, disk:b, disk1 etc. without
success. In despair I even tried to use something what GRUB2 has shown
me when I was struggling with configuring it - lines like
(/pci@1f\,4000/scsi@3/disk@0\,033333333333333333333333333F��������������) /dev/sda
...
So I tried to
boot /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3/disk@0,0:33333333333333333333333333F
and... it worked. It looks like nonsense but for now I have set this in
PROM. How this E450 really understands "33333333333333333333333333F"?
Just as "f"? Or as a whole disk? Very strange. My /boot partition is
just /dev/sda1 (no RAID/LVM on this disk).
I am used to use /proc/openprom but it is empty on my machine. I have
modprobed openpromfs but it did not help.
I was reporting dependencies problems with dwdiff. Probably it was
compiled with slightly older version of the libraries. I was able to
compile and install the F12 RPM from devel/source.

I tried to install Fedora-Sparc at SUN Fire v240.
But got errors... logs are given below....
Can anyone help.....
the fix to make partitioning work doesnt seem to like some old partition
labels. if you boot into rescue mode and run
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX bs=512 count=1
where X is each drive you should then have no problems doing auto
partitioning
note you will want to add "console=ttyS0" to silo when you install if using a
serial console. you will also need to use the serial console post install to
either install NetworkManager or enable the network service to have working
networking
If you want to customise the install at all you will need to append vnc
Anaconda does a minimal install with default partitioning when doing a serial
console install.

Yep. That's probably my fault, we will get it fixed before we call F-12
final. :)

I have noticed it too but I have forgotten to inform.
One complain atracts other ones. Today I hav switch to devel/12/sparc
and my yum said:
Pobranie klucza GPG nie powiodło się: [Errno 14] Could not open/read
file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-sparc
I wonder what is the proper fix. My was:
root@pingwin:/etc/pki/rpm-gpg,1# ln -s RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-12-sparc
RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-sparc
but maybe a better one would be a change in yum.repos.d files. I use
[rawhide] section of fedora-rawhide.repo which has a following line
concering keys:
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-$basearch
file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-$basearch
The URL I use now instead of original one is:
baseurl=ftp://ftp.icm.edu.pl/pub/Linux/dist/fedora-secondary/development/12/sparc/os
It looks like in any case it concerns fedora-release-12-3.noarch
package.
What was fixed in devel/12/sparc are dwdiff dependencies. Thanks.
