Install of Gentoo 2004.1 on Sun V60x
A micro howto on installing Gentoo 2004.1 on the Sun Microsystems V60x . First of all follow the Installation Handbook at the Gentoo site, its an absolute must. I came along problems after booting from the Gentoo CDROM and not been able to see SCSI Controller and NIC devices.
Booted from the Gentoo 2004.1 2004.1 Universal x86 cdrom .
Using the default boot Gentoo did not find the SCSI controller and NIC devices.
Using “lspci” command I identified the Adaptec AIC-7902 SCSI controller and Intel Corp. 82546EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller (1000baseT).
