# http://git.mdcc.cx/ad1810-doc.git How to install Debian on a Sun SPARC system by Joost van Baal-Ilić autumn 2012 This document ============= As of january 2014, this document is largely unfinished. I haven't found the final words on how to install Debian on a SPARC yet. This document will get updated. More information ================ More information on how to install Debian GNU/Linux on a Sun SPARC system is available from http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/sparc/ and https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/Sun . Introduction ============ This document aims to describe installing Debian GNU/Linux on a Sun SPARC system. It describes attempts to install the Debian "wheezy" release on a SunFire V120 (a rackmountable 1U system), a Sun ENTERPRISE 220 R (a rackmountable 4U system), a SunFire 280R, a SunBlade 1000 (a tower model) and a SunBlade 150 (desktop system). For a SPARC system newer than an Ultra 5 or Ultra 10, you'll need to setup a TFTP and a DHCP server in order to install Debian on the SPARC. Most "modern" SPARCS won't boot from a CD. If your SPARC lacks a video card, you'll have to get yourself a Serial cable and a system which runs a serial communication program like minicom or cu. The systems I've seen won't boot from CDROM, DVD or USB. Hardware - sticking disks in 220R and 280R. =========================================== In order to access disks, on e.g. SunFire 280R and ENTERPRISE 220R systems, you need to open the two front panel doors. First open the left big one with the plastic cover. Make sure the lock is in non-locked position (e.g. at position "I"). You'll likely need to apply brute force. See also the 2003 post on "SunFire 280R front panel access" by David Beard at solaris.managers, archived at http://osdir.com/ml/solaris.managers.summaries/2003-01/msg00004.html . Setting up minicom ================== In order to get console access, you'll have to set up a program like e.g. minicom on a second system (not the sparc). You'll need to connect this second system via a serial cable to the sparc. root@sveznalica:~# apt-get update && apt-get -V install minicom The following NEW packages will be installed: lrzsz (0.12.21-5) minicom (2.6.1-1) root@sveznalica:~# adduser joostvb dialout joostvb@sveznalica:~% newgrp dialout joostvb@sveznalica:~% ls -l /dev/ttyS* /dev/ttyUSB* crw-rw---T 1 root dialout 4, 64 окт 29 19:22 /dev/ttyS0 crw-rw---T 1 root dialout 4, 65 окт 29 19:22 /dev/ttyS1 crw-rw---T 1 root dialout 4, 66 окт 29 19:22 /dev/ttyS2 crw-rw---T 1 root dialout 4, 67 окт 29 19:22 /dev/ttyS3 crw-rw---T 1 root dialout 188, 0 нов 2 10:08 /dev/ttyUSB0 joostvb@sveznalica:~% dmesg | grep tty [ 0.000000] console [tty0] enabled [236638.974602] usb 2-1: pl2303 converter now attached to ttyUSB0 ( Nov 2 10:08:04 sveznalica kernel: [236638.276328] usb 2-1: new full-speed USB device number 2 using uhci_hcd Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica kernel: [236638.430260] usb 2-1: New USB device found, idVendor=067b, idProduct=2303 Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica kernel: [236638.430281] usb 2-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=0, SerialNumber=0 Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica mtp-probe: checking bus 2, device 2: "/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1" Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica mtp-probe: bus: 2, device: 2 was not an MTP device Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica kernel: [236638.957927] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica kernel: [236638.958028] USB Serial support registered for generic Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica kernel: [236638.960550] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial_generic Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica kernel: [236638.960560] usbserial: USB Serial Driver core Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica kernel: [236638.962737] USB Serial support registered for pl2303 Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica kernel: [236638.962808] pl2303 2-1:1.0: pl2303 converter detected Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica kernel: [236638.974602] usb 2-1: pl2303 converter now attached to ttyUSB0 Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica kernel: [236638.974681] usbcore: registered new interface driver pl2303 Nov 2 10:08:05 sveznalica kernel: [236638.974691] pl2303: Prolific PL2303 USB to serial adaptor driver ) Configure minicom by editing /etc/minicom/minirc.dfl root@sveznalica:~# vi /etc/minicom/minirc.dfl , it should look like e.g.: pu port /dev/ttyUSB0 pu baudrate 9600 pu rtscts No Be sure your baudrate is 9600! (Alternatively, run the interactive interface to tweak your minirc.dfl: root@sveznalica:~# minicom -s ) Now we're ready to run minicom. NB: Do not run minicom from within screen: both programs use ^a as escape sequence. joostvb@sveznalica:~% minicom If everything is fine, the minicom status line at the bottom of the screen shows: CTRL-A Z for help | 9600 8N1 | NOR | Minicom 2.6.1 | VT102 | Offline . Use these commands from within minicom: ^a-f break ^a-h hangup ^a-x exit and reset ^a-q hard quit ^a-z help Now connect your serial cable to the port labeled "SERIAL MGT". (I believe the "NET MGT" port won't work.) Access via ALOM =============== In case your port is labeled ALOM (e.g. if you have a SunFire V120): Connect the powercable to your sparc: for ALOM (or LOM) to run, the machine just needs power; it does not need to be fully powered up. Fans don't need to spin, no powerbutton needs to be pressed. For now, you won't be annoyed by the noise :) Once there's power, minicom should show: ,------------------------------ | ALOM BOOTMON v1.3.0 ALOM Build Release: 007 Reset register: e0000000 EHRS ESRS LLRS ALOM POST 1.0 Dual Port Memory Test, PASSED.

Enter #. to return to ALOM. | `-------------------------- So, when the login:-prompt shows, just wait for a timeout. Then, press ^a-f to send a break to the console. Systems without ALOM: Serial ============================ Older models lack ALOM. You can get console access via traditional serial line. Generally (e.g. on Sun ENTERPRISE 220 R), you need the wide 25-pins serial connection; the one labeled "A" (not the "B", not the "//"). Make sure pins in your cable are connected the "right" way. Lots of "wrong" cables are around... Setup DHCP Server ================= Set up a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Server on your second system. # apt install isc-dhcp-server You might want to disable running the dhcp server when booting your system: root@sveznalica:~# grep INTERFACES /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server # INTERFACES="eth0" INTERFACES="" . This makes sure you won't disrupt the network (unless you've manually prepared). root@sveznalica:~# service network-manager stop [ ok ] Stopping network connection manager: NetworkManager. root@sveznalica:~# cat /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf authoritative; next-server 192.168.45.45 ; option broadcast-address 192.168.45.255 ; if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 3) = "d-i" { filename "http://babelo/di.seeds" ; } else { # filename "pxelinux.0" ; filename "boot.img" ; } subnet 192.168.45.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { range 192.168.45.192 192.168.45.253 ; } Now connect network ports via utp cable. root@sveznalica:~# ip a 2: eth0: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN qlen 1000 link/ether c8:60:00:19:1a:75 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 3: wlan0: mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN qlen 1000 link/ether 00:08:ca:43:de:97 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff root@sveznalica:~# ifconfig eth0 192.168.45.45 up root@sveznalica:~# ip a l eth0 2: eth0: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN qlen 1000 link/ether c8:60:00:19:1a:75 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.45.45/24 brd 192.168.45.255 scope global eth0 root@sveznalica:~# service isc-dhcp-server force-reload [FAIL] Stopping ISC DHCP server: dhcpd failed!

The default is 1.2 for --create, and to guess for other operations. The default can be overridden by setting the metadata value for the CREATE keyword in mdadm.conf. Options are: 0, 0.90 Use the original 0.90 format superblock. This format limits arrays to 28 component devices and limits compo‐ nent devices of levels 1 and greater to 2 terabytes. It is also possible for there to be confusion about whether the superblock applies to a whole device or just the last partition, if that partition starts on a 64K boundary. 1, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 default Use the new version-1 format superblock. This has fewer restrictions. It can easily be moved between hosts with different endian-ness, and a recovery operation can be checkpointed and restarted. The different sub-versions store the superblock at different locations on the device, either at the end (for 1.0), at the start (for 1.1) or 4K from the start (for 1.2). "1" is equivalent to "1.2" (the commonly preferred 1.x format). "default" is equivalent to "1.2". we willen 1.0 bij aanmaken van /dev/md0 maak eerst backup van md0 data, daarna op nieuw bouwen root@hopper:/# mkdir /var/rootfs root@hopper:/# cp --one-file-system -av / /var/rootfs [...] `/etc/rc0.d/K06umountroot' -> `/var/rootfs/etc/rc0.d/K06umountroot' `/etc/gai.conf' -> `/var/rootfs/etc/gai.conf' [...] `/run/motd.dynamic' -> `/var/rootfs/run/motd.dynamic' `/run/initctl' -> `/var/rootfs/run/initctl' `/run/shm' -> `/var/rootfs/run/shm' ~ # for i in proc sys dev;do umount /target/$i; done ~ # df -h Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on none 202.2M 80.0K 202.1M 0% /run tmpfs 1010.8M 0 1010.8M 0% /dev /dev/md0 938.1M 133.6M 756.8M 15% /target /dev/mapper/raid-home 727.3M 32.2M 695.1M 4% /target/home /dev/mapper/raid-opt 727.3M 32.2M 695.1M 4% /target/opt /dev/mapper/sps-tmp 727.3M 32.2M 695.2M 4% /target/tmp /dev/mapper/raid-usr 727.3M 185.6M 541.7M 26% /target/usr /dev/mapper/raid-var 727.3M 359.4M 367.9M 49% /target/var /dev/mapper/raid-log 727.3M 32.5M 694.9M 4% /target/var/log /dev/md0 938.1M 133.6M 756.8M 15% /dev/.static/dev tmpfs 1010.8M 0 1010.8M 0% /target/dev tmpfs 1010.8M 0 1010.8M 0% /target/dev ~ # for f in log var usr tmp opt home; do umount /target/$f; done umount: can't umount /target/log: No such file or directory umount: can't umount /target/var: Device or resource busy ~ # umount /target/var/log ~ # umount /target/var ~ # umount /target/dev /dev/md0 on /dev/.static/dev type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=ordered) ~ # umount /dev/.static/dev ~ # df -h Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on none 202.2M 80.0K 202.1M 0% /run tmpfs 1010.8M 0 1010.8M 0% /dev we willen "Create" root@hopper:/# cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid1] md1 : active raid1 sdc2[1] 34477504 blocks super 1.2 [2/1] [_U] md0 : active raid1 sdb[0] sdc1[1] 975936 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU] unused devices: root@hopper:/# cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name 8 0 3918848 sda 8 1 3917824 sda1 8 16 35566479 sdb 8 32 71687369 sdc 8 33 1044932 sdc1 8 34 34510374 sdc2 8 35 71674656 sdc3 8 36 36109536 sdc4 9 0 975936 md0 9 1 34477504 md1 253 0 749568 dm-0 253 1 1949696 dm-1 253 2 749568 dm-2 253 3 749568 dm-3 253 4 749568 dm-4 253 5 749568 dm-5 253 6 749568 dm-6 root@hopper:/# pvs PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree /dev/md1 raid lvm2 a-- 32.88g 29.30g /dev/sdc4 sps lvm2 a-- 34.43g 31.86g root@hopper:/# fdisk -l /dev/sdb Disk /dev/sdb (Sun disk label): 27 heads, 107 sectors, 24620 cylinders Units = sectors of 1 * 512 bytes Device Flag Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 2889 2100041 1048576 fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/sdb2 2100303 71127180 34513438+ fd Linux raid autodetect root@hopper:/# fdisk -l /dev/sdc Disk /dev/sdc (Sun disk label): 24 heads, 424 sectors, 14087 cylinders Units = sectors of 1 * 512 bytes Device Flag Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdc1 10176 2100041 1044932+ fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/sdc2 2106432 71127180 34510374 fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/sdc3 0 143349312 71674656 5 Whole disk /dev/sdc4 71130240 143349312 36109536 8e Linux LVM lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Nov 30 11:37 /etc/silo.conf -> ../boot/silo.conf root@hopper:/# cat /boot/silo.conf root=/dev/md0 partition=0 default=Linux read-only timeout=100 image=/boot/vmlinuz label=Linux initrd=/boot/initrd.img image=/boot/vmlinuz.old label=LinuxOLD initrd=/boot/initrd.img.old hrm.... ???????????????????
