The new mkisofs now supports to create Solaris x96 boot CDs

ASs it allows to create more slices than the original Sun
CDs use there are even more possibble usage scenarios.

Please check the new sources at

ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha

and read the man page and README.sunx86boot

The site seems to require a username/password. I tried to use
anonymous/e-mail-address, no luck however.

Are you getting:

530 Sorry, the maximum number of allowed users are already connected (25).
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection

messages?

Try again later.

Bye, Dragan

It is most likely that you are behind a miss configured firewall.

I have no problems to access the server.

I thought the Intel i960 architecture had been around for a long time.
Haven't seen Solaris running on it though.... 8-)

I just retried it (same set-up as before) and it works OK for me too
now.

>I have no problems to access the server.

Unfortunately I did not try any commandline ftp client before (only
the msie and opera browser) so I cannot tell which error the server
returned (sorry Dragan). I -did- get a username/password prompt
though, when using the browser before !

Thanks any{how|way} !

Thank you for this hint. So it seems that a lot of people are using
broken browsers that don't print a useful error text :-(
