[SunRescue] SparcstationIPC

Hi guys,

I have a couple of IPCs here and was hoping to run Debian (my linux distro
of choice) or NetBSD. The problem I have is that Debian likes to run amok
with packages and NetBSD just plain old won't fit a base install on a
200Mb disk!

Can anyone tell me where I can find Slackware/sparc boot floppys (if any
exist, I couldn't find them!) or suggest another OS to run?

Alternatively I could probably get hold of a bigger scsi drive, does
anyone know what size drive an IPC can support?


BTW, One of my flatmates works for a rather large carrier and couldn't get
his head around it being 200mb and not 200gb :P
