Hi all,

I just installed Debian 4.0 SPARC on my Ultra 10 and it seems to work fine
so far.

The only glitch I have (so far) is that aptitude keeps asking me for the
Network installation CD every time I want to install a piece of software.
Things work fine once I put the CD in the drive. I have installed Debian 3.1
on another (Intel) machine and this doesn't happen.

Any thoughts on how I could stop this? Thanks in advance.

Hi Desmond

Delete the line referring to the CD from /etc/apt/sources.list keeping
only network sources, that should do it.

Cheers,

look in /etc/apt/sources.list

There is probably and entry in there with cdrom on it.

Comment it out, to a apt-get update and you should be good to go.

I still have sarge on my UltraSparc 1/170E, but it seems to me that the
solution is to comment out or delete the lines referring to your CD-ROM in
/etc/apt/sources.list .
