tftp boot: Thank You for Support

[Wolfgang Ganzert <Wolfgang.Ganzert@UniBw-Muenchen.de>]

Hello all of You,

I want to say:

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I appreciate all the help from all people (not only now) which support
other users using Linux. I do that myself also, but I am still quiet new in
Linux.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Goodbye from Munich

Wolfgang

The solution:

After desperate waiting couple of days finally I got the message what has
to be done, in order to boot a Sparc Linux kernel with tftp.

The solution is simple:

Since the PROM does not understand the ELF format of the kernel, this has
to be converted in a.out format using the elftoaout executable. After this
was done everything went fine.
