SunFire 280R


Hi
Recently our company intend to reuse own sun servers.So I have to install Linux on it.I have downloaded debian Lenny for sparc.I have problem in installing procedure,I get error:there is not any hard disk detected!
by default one disk plugged to slot 0.
after that I pluged hard disk in slot 1 (second slot) while loading debian (after initialize initram), the error "memory address not aligned" was displayed.
Apparently this slot does not detect hard!how can I check hard disk availability from BootOpen Prom ??
Thanks in advance

Code:
setenv auto-boot? false
reset-all
probe-scsi-all
Then to boot, examples:
Code:
boot disk
boot cdrom
boot net
To turn autoboot back on:
Code:
setenv auto-boot? true
reset-all
