[Fedora-sparc] Issue with SBUS ESP?

[Lamar Owen]

Good afternoon.

After letting the SB1000 F12beta install percolate for a while, I decided to 
take my spare SCSI DVD-ROM drive out of the second SB1000, and put it in the 
E6500.  After the 20 minute boot up wait on the E6500 (takes a right long 
while to boot 17CPU's and 20GB of RAM on one!), I was able to boot the F12Beta 
ISO, issuing a 'linux vnc vncpassword=xxxxxx console=ttyS0,9600' and it 
started coming up.

However, once the initrd has come up, it can no longer find the DVD.  Since I'm 
on a serial console, it's difficult to see what's going on.  And copy/paste from 
GTKTERM I've not figured out, yet....

I try to load the Sun ESP driver, but it still doesn't find anything.  Any 
parameters I need to pass to the driver for the SBUS ESP on the E6500 to 
recognize the DVD?
