Description mikal@stillhq.com 2000-08-22 22:54:39 UTC 
This is probably related to the IPX disk formatting errors that have been 
reported, but I will mention it anyway. I was installing 6.2 on my sparc 
10, and the system claims to be formatting /, but has been running for two 
days now. / is only a 5gb partition on a 6gb disk...

6.1 installed successfully.

This was a CD based install, as opposed to over the network like in the 
case of the IPX installs.

Please reopen a bug-report with more information about logmessages what is
going wrong if you still have this problem. I haven't seen that on our own sparc
here.
