Hello,

you're right - I may be impatient.
BTW he did post to the group only one hour ago.
Maybe he wants to respond later.

Installing Debian failed due to hw support.
As well as Mandrake - installation via serial console didn't work.
I had more luck with Suse's final SPARC LinUX 7.3.

Unfortunately the build environment is quite outdated and let's see if I 
can find prebuilt gcc, binutils and co. or whether it needs to be built 
by myself.

The QEMU 0.6.0 build process stops very early and keeps me hopeless.

Regards,
Martin Bochnig
