To all...
I know the Sparc EL5 port is beta/alpha/gamma... I was able to install base server package using a tftp image. ls -la /tftpboot/tftp64.img -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9154949 Mar 24 16:39 /tftpboot/tftp64.img
I even was able to download the recent curl-7.15.5-2.1.el5.4 update from redhat and rebuild it... (After installing alot of other rpms) . Using "sparc32 rpmbuild -ba specfile" worked like a champ..
Great job. The Sparc EL5 port works in my book.
How can I get the SRPMS used to build the sparc el5 port?... It looks like a few have sparc specific changes/additions...
For example... silo-1.4.13-8.c5sparc.src.rpm initscripts-8.45.17.EL-1.c5sparc.1.src.rpm
There are others but I can only find a couple at http://sparc.centos.org/os/SRPMS/
Some of the rpms were recently rebuilt so someone is using t2000-c5 for fun....
Thank you... David
