The problem John ran into installing 7.7 on the Suns was that solar2 (not
solar) should be used for installing 7.7 directly. (solar should be used for
installing 7.6 directly.) And, unfortunately, the default install server
on the 7.7 install diskettes I made was....solar! So:
a) If you make new 7.7 install diskettes now, the default server
will be 'solar2' (which will work)
b) If you use 7.7 diskettes which were written before today (Aug 23),
you need to specify '18.159.0.21' for the install server. The
default 18.159.0.28 WILL NOT WORK.
Thanks to jjmorey for reporting this, and Miki for spotting the problem.
