[SunHELP] Ultra5/10 hardware question

[Michael Karl]

Hi Shahid,

some weeks ago I had the same problem.
I stopped the installation and took the 1 of 2 installation-cd (04/01)
and started with "boot cdrom" a second time. After this I opened a
"command-tool" and run "format", made the partitions, labeled the disk
and then started the complete installation a second time. Every thing o.K.
