19: This is the current OpenBSD 2.1 CD errata list:
20: <ul>
1.6 ! grr 21: <li><strong>Alpha</strong>
! 22: <ul>
1.1 deraadt 23: <li>CD2 does not boot on the alpha, as had been planned. Instead, you
1.3 deraadt 24: must use the floppy install method. This is not significantly
25: harder..
1.6 ! grr 26: </ul>
! 27: <li><strong>Amiga</strong>
! 28: <ul>
1.4 niklas 29: <li>The amiga install has a flaw wrt Tseng based graphic cards: when entering
30: multiuser mode the console won't get a login prompt. This is due to
31: a problem in the shipped /dev/MAKEDEV script. To fix, enter single
32: user mode and do:
1.5 todd 33: <pre><b>#</b> cd /dev
1.4 niklas 34: <b>#</b> sh MAKEDEV ttye6
35: </pre>
1.6 ! grr 36: </ul>
! 37: <li><strong>Sparc</strong>
! 38: <ul>
1.5 todd 39: <li>The sparc X11R6.3 xdm-config files reference /usr/X11R6.3/... This is
40: due to X11R6.3's default config file contents. To fix, su and
41: type:
42: <pre><b>#</b> cd /usr
43: <b>#</b> ln -s X11R6 X11R6.3
44: </pre>
1.6 ! grr 45: <li>The sparc "single floppy install disk" has a problem when you specify
! 46: "dumb" in response to the terminal type query. As a work-around
! 47: first specify an invalid terminal such as "bogus" and when prompted
! 48: again for a terminal type, enter "dumb" and it will work correctly.
! 49: <li>When netbooting an older sparc system such as a Sun4 or Sun4c, the boot
! 50: may hang up at the end of the tftp transfer of the bootstrap due
! 51: to the tftp transfer working in 512-byte blocks. If this occurs
! 52: create a "padded" version of the bootstrap (boot or zboot) as follows:
! 53: <pre><b>#</b> cd /tftpboot
! 54: <b>#</b> dd if=boot of=newboot obs=512 conv=osync
! 55: <b>#</b> mv newboot boot
! 56: </pre>
! 57: </ul>
