ACPI tables, Resource conflict, Dell Dimension 8100 - need Solaris 7

I just bought a new Dell Dimension 8100 and I am getting the same error as SunilPP, "ACPI tables not in reclaim memory" and "Recourse conflict, both devices are added NON ACPI device ...".
One of the solutions suggested on this forum is to install Solaris 7 and upgrade to 8. Does anyone know where I can download Solaris 7 for Intel?
Thanks,
mraible

Solaris 7 is not available on line. This can be purchased on-line at www.store.sun.com or 1-800-sun-0404.
BTW, I don't believe you can upgrade to Solaris 8. The ACPI support code was introduced in Solaris 8 -- part of DCA (Device Configuration
Assitant) code where it provides additional PCI device info if the
motherboard supports it. This WARNING: ACPI Tables Not In Reclaim
Memory is a bug yet to be fixed.
You could load Solaris 7 and wait for the fix, then load a new OS which
has the fix.

Wireless Networking / Solaris and a Dell Dimension 8100

I'm getting ready to buy a Dell Dimension 8100 and I want to install Win2K, Solaris 8, and Mandrake Linux on it. I'm also interested in setting up a Wireless network in my house. I can get the following wireless setup from Dell, but will it work with Solaris?
Dell Truemobile 1150 Wireless Networking PCI Card and Base Station
Thanks,

Hi,
Yes, based on its specs, it has wireless g:
Connectivity
USB 2.0
Ethernet
PictBridge
Wireless 802.11g
HP Printer Adapters with Bluetooth Wireless Technology (HP models bt450, bt500) (optional)
Hope this helps.

Sol 8 Install on Dell Dim 8100 - Problem - ACPI?

I am having a mixture of the problems stated on this forum's earlier threads. The kit is as follows:
Solaris 8 for Intel 8.0 10/00 (2 CD's + 1 DCA floppy disk)
DELL Dimension 8100 - Intel Pentium 4 1.3GHz processor + 128MB NON ECC RDRAM + 40GB Ultra Hard Drive + 8xIDE DVD/CDRW Combo
On starting off with DCA, I see the warning that someone else has seen here:
     "ACPI tables not in reclaim memory"
and then on ignoring this and continuing (again similar to another poster's experience):
     "Resource conflict - Both devices are added
     NON ACPI device PNP0C01 Port 800-8DF .... etc
     ACPI device PNP0C01 .. etc"
Not easily put off, I continued. It asks for booting options, I say CD. It takes the default boot option and crashes.
I've managed to set up Solaris 8 and Win2000 dual boot on another (experimental lower spec) Dell Optiplex but not having any sort of luck on this.
There are no options for disabling ACPI support on the BIOS. I've wasted about 3 days trying various approaches all to no avail and now over to any experts out there - HELPPPPP !!!!
SunilPP

I am seeing the exact same thing on my Gateway PC (Pentium III @ 733 MHz, 128 MB RAM, 20 GB hard disk). During boot I get the same exact message (Warning: ACPI tables not in reclaim memory) and then during the device scanning I get the message about "resource conflict - both devices added". I get to the same point as you (starts to boot into Solaris) and then the system freezes. So, although I don't have an answer for you it appears that it is not DELL specific and not Pentium 4 specific. What BIOS do you have on your machine? Running the BIOS Wizzard (found on the Unicore site - http://www.unicore.com/) this is what my machine reports:
BIOS Date: 07/07/00
BIOS Type: American Megatrends licensed to Intel
BIOS ID: 51-2300-000000-00101111-030199-

Solaris 8 on Dell Dimension 4100 (**ACPI Tables)

I downloaded Solaris 8 Binaries and created Device Configuration Assistant bootable diskette. When I try to boot up my system (Dell Dimension 4100) with the bootable diskette I created to install solaris on one partition, it pops up an error message before the device configuration assistant gets loaded. It says
WARNING:ACPI Tables not in reclaim memory
prom_panic:kmem_free block already free.
Could anyone guide me how do I get over it??

After thrashing for 2 weeks with the onboard 7880 SCSI and onboard 7890 RAID controllers, I was finally able to load up Solaris 8 on a Poweredge 2400. (4/01 build)
The only way I was able to do it was configure the server as below:
7880 SCSI: CD-ROM drive only device on this controller, set to ID 5.
7890 RAID controller: Disabled. Dont' believe Dell or Adaptec, this card will not work with Solaris 7 or 8. Even with the RAID chip removed and running as standard SCSI controller, it still would not work.
Adaptec 2940 U2W: 9G Quantum Atlas V drive with HP SureStore DAT 24i drive.
PERC II RAID controller yanked out of older 4100 system, 3 drives running RAID 5.
Important note: Do not attach anything to the 7880 controller besides the CD. The system will not boot if attempting to boot to the HD or if you attempt to boot from CD, it will hang at the adp.bef file.
Hope this helps..

Resource Conflict Warning (ACPI/NON-ACPI devices) while installing solaris

Hi,
I am trying to install Solaris 8 on my system.
Intel Celeron 1.7 Ghz
128 MB RAM
Gigabyte 8LD 533K Motherboard with Intel Chipset.
While installing, the second installation screen titled "Bus
Enumeration" gives the following warning.
Warning: Resource Conflict:
ACPI Device: PNP0C01.
Memory: (about 5 to 6 memory addresses in hexadecimal form are shown)
NON-ACPI Device: PNP0C01.
Memory: (about 5 to 6 memory addresses in hexadecimal form are shown,
which are different from the ones shown under the ACPI device list)
I ignored the message and pressed F2 key as suggested.
The next screen "Solaris Boot" comes and after choosing the CD (as
the target from which the OS is to be installed), The next screen
comes up asking me to chose the type of installation 1) Solaris
Interactive and 2) Jumpstart. No matter which option I choose, the
system shows 2-3 messages, and even before I can read them, the
system reboots. Thus I am unable to install Solaris.
I searched on Google and as one person had suggested tried tweaking
the BIOS. (Disable APM etc). But it did not work, because I don't
have an option that specifically gives the Disable/Enable option for
APM. I get the Advanced Power Management screen, but it shows some
different options.
I spoke about this problem with a friend who has some experience on
Solaris and he put the CD Drive and the Hard Disk on two different
buses, but it didn't help. I still get the same message.
I would be very grateful if someone could suggest a method so I can
install Solaris.
Regards,
pmu

The next screen comes up asking me to chose the type of installation 1) Solaris
Interactive and 2) Jumpstart. At this screen, type
b kadb -v
instead of choosing 1) or 2). Now you should be able to read the error messages from the kernel that
prevent booting into Solaris.

ACPI Tables, prom_panic, kmem_free

Need help with Solaris 8 install. Had no trouble on an AMD K6-3, but now need to install on a different machine. Trying to install on a Dell Dimension 4100. I boot off the CD and get a message like:
Warning: ACPI Tables not found in Reclaim Memory
prom_panic: kmem_free already has blocks already free (this last part is almost word for word, I am going off memory here). The system then goes into debugger mode. I am forced to reboot. Can't get past this point (i.e. no files installed, since I'm stuck at booting of the CDROM).
I thought it was the graphics card, so I swapped out my ATI Rage 128 pro for a Matrox 32MB G400 (That's the graphics card I had on the system that I got Solaris to work on). But, same message. I'm wondering if it's the motherboard or the memory (motherboard is 815e Intel, memory is PC133). The computer is a PIII 733MHz, 128MB RAM, 20GB HD. Let me know of any advice!!! Thanks in advance!!!
- jamil

I am also having this problem with a Dell Dimension 4100. The exact error message is:
WARNING: ACPI Tables not in Reclaim Memory
prom_panic: kmem_free block already free
There is a current post on alt.solaris.x86 from someone who has the same problem who has said Sun's advice was that it may be related to BUGID 4366007 and to use Solaris 7.
I don't have access to the Sun database though, so can't shed any further light. Any information on this very gratefully received... Nick - [email protected]

Solaris 8 x86: Resource Conflict

Hello,
My x86 PC has:
- Elitegroup K7S5A mainboard
- AMD Athlon K7 XP 2400+ Socket A thoroughbred CPU
- AmiBIOS
- 256 MB SDRAM
- 2 Hard Disks with 40 GB each
When I start Solaris 8 installation with the installation CD, the following is displayed in the screen "Bus Enumeration":
Determining bus types and gathering hardware configuration data ...
Warning: Resource Conflict - both devices are added
NON-ACPI device: ISY0050
Port: 3F0-3F5, 3F7; IRQ: 6; DMA: 2
ACPI device: ISY0050
Port: 3F2-3F3, 3F4-3F5; 3F7; IRQ: 6; DMA: 2
Next screen with "Bus Enumeration" shows:
Warning: Resource Conflict - both devices are added
NON-ACPI device: CSC0001
Port: 200-207
ACPI device: CSC0001
Port: 201-208
Next screen "Scanning Devices" works o.k.
Then the boot starts in line modus and shows the following:
error: Configuration error - missing controller?
The root file system is not mounted and the configuration assistant has exited prematurely. Booting is unlikely to succeed.
Shortly later boot stops.
Please, can anybody tell me what the root of the error is? Is there something to be configured in the BIOS?
Thank you very much in advance!
Thomas

Continuing installation of my Solaris 8 x86 after a long break.
As mentioned above, the installation works now with the patched ata.bef. The installation seems to work o.k. After completion of the installation, I boot to the second hard disk where my Solaris 8 x86 installation is located. Solaris boot manager appears, Solaris boot process begins but shortly after, it stops with the following message:
error: Configuration error - missing controller?
The root filesystem is not mounted and the configuration assistant has exited prematurely. Booting is unlikely to succeed. CRL-ALT-DEL may be used to reset the machine.
Failover to boot interpreter - type ctrl-d to resume boot
Pressing ctrl-d leads to
boot: source: open of '/etc/bootrc' failed
My configuration as mentioned at the beginning of the thread did not change in the meantime. Is there any idea what is wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Warning ACPI tables not in reclaim memory

Hi,
When booting the system from a DCA i was getting an error
Warning: ACPI tables not in reclaim memory
prom_panic:Kmem_free block already free
Entering boot debugger
[12ff05]
To get around this problem I downloaded the patch 110930-03 and made a image copy diskette of it and rebooted the system but it still gave me the same error.
Then I appended the line
setprop acpi-user-options '0x2'
at the end of bootenv.rc and rebooted the system but still it did not work.
I have a dell dimension 4100 system with P3 and 1GHz of RAM.It as a 40GB Hard disk of which I am using 15GB for windows 2000 server which is installed on the primary partition and rest of the space is still not partitioned.
If anyone else has come across the same problem please let me know the workaround otherwise I will have to return the computer and buy another one.
Thanks
Anurag

Interesting - usually this is a harmless (I believe) error message
and doesn't affect operation - getting kicked into the debugger is
new to me.
Can you please let us know your HW config - system/mobo type and BIOS version please - I believe Sun engineers are working on this.
Tks

ACPI Tables not in Reclaim Memory, panic[cpu0]/thr

I try to do exactly the same. I do not think that the solution is to disable ACPI or to install Solaris 7.
The Steps I did:
I also get the WARNING messages when starting with the installation CD #1 (not the setup CD):
ACPI Tables not in Reclaim Memory
and in Bus Enumeration
Warning: Resource Conflict - both devices are added
The device is PNP0C01.
So far, so good, warnings are not errors.
then boot the solaris kernel from CD#1
type in the following:
b kadb -d<enter>
:c<enter>
the result is the following:
panic[cpu0]/thread=fec17540: BAD TRAP: type=d (General Protection Fault) rp=fec12a94 addr=0
General Protection Fault
pid=0, pc=0xfe80f2f6, sp=0xfe808eb6, eflags=0x10002
and so on.....
Do you have any solution?
kind regards
adrian

On usenet, you've at least mentioned that the system uses
a pentium 4 cpu. That is not supported under solaris 8
(yet).
Search this forum for "pentium 4" discussions. There's
a kadb patch posted that apparently allows installing
solaris 8 on a pentium 4 system.

Connecting MacBook Pro to Dell Dimension

I have a MacBook Pro, a Dell Dimension and a 24" Dell Monitor. Im trying to connect the two computers to one monitor, keyboard and mouse. Its my understanding that a KVM switch should work but my main concern is that Im trying to use a wireless mac keyboard and a wireless mac mighty mouse. Also, Im going to need to have enough outputs on the switch to be able to share the speakers, a USB printer (Epson R220) and the USB card reader thats built into the monitor. Is there a KVM switch that will be able to handle this?
Is there a better way to be able to share these computers?
Please help!

Wheather the wireless keyboard and mouse will work seems to depend on the adapter / bluetooth software stack being used.
Some people have had success with the DLink DBT-120 adapter, some don't. I have tried it with DBT-120 as well and it did not work. However, I tried it with the version that is currently sold in retail stores, which is the "C1" build version. This one uses a Bluetooth software stack from Toshiba and that seems to be the issue. The B1 version that some people where successful with apparently uses a WIDCOMM stack, and that seems to be the key.
Now, some people are saying that you have to have the DBT-120 adapter and a certain old version of the WIDCOMM stack, 1.4.2.10, to get it to work. But after searching the web quite a bit, I believe I found a better solution that will work with ANY bluetooth adapter (or built in bluetooth) that uses ANY version of the WIDCOMM stack.
Here is what you do:
1. Install you Bluetooth adapter as described by the manufacturer and reboot your machine.
2. Switch the Apple wireless mouse on into pairing mode and watch the lower right side of your screen closely for messages from windows. There will be a message saying that pairing failed because of a missing code. Click on that message and in the window that opens enter 0000 as code. Now your mouse should work.
3. Press Win Start button, choose Run and then type regedit and press enter to access windows registry editor.
4. In the registry editor search for and select -> HKEYCURRENTUSER\Software\Widcomm\BtConfig\General
5. Set the key 'PinCodeWord' to a decimal value of 1111
6. Set the key 'UseFixedPin' to a decimal value of 1
7. Then attempt pairing. When you get to the greyed PIN screen type 1111 using OTHER keyboard THAN Apple Bluetooth keyboard.
8. Press the Return key on the Apple keyboard on the number pad, not the regular Retrun key.
7. Enjoy your nice Apple wireless keyboard and mouse.
I am currently typing this with the Apple wireless keyboard and mouse on a HP laptop. The bluetooth adapter is from Belkin and the WIDCOMM stack is 4.x.

DV7-4069wm ACPI table reset/recovery

I have been unable to reset my acpi tables to factory defaults (firmware, not software).
They were modified remotely via rootkit on win7 and BIOS was flashed backwards to F23 from F28.
I cannot determine if I am running on flashed bios or a shadow variant as BIOS admin is locked out from all advanced features.
I am no longer able to do a recovery BIOS flash with win+b keys either from a EFI util created USB key or HP_TOOLS drive partition, nor a prepared efi HP_TOOLS CD. "remove any disks and press any key to reboot" message, which does not reboot - requires power reset. No BIOS recovery screen at all, simply disk/usb seeks, then message. Using the four arrow key combination, did result in a seemingly successful forceflash update of BIOS stamp, however did not display any BIOS recovery screen, nor fan speedup as expected during a classic flash.
In old win64 premium install, user admin context was overridden, and due to acpi injection any reinstall on windows is also compromised. In windows with SVM disabled in BIOS, all ata/usb runs via usb subsystem drivers, in Linux it always does. With SVM enabled in BIOS, windows reports ATA drivers, however ATA disk to disk traffic in either OS maxes out at 20Mb/s - usb2 speeds.
In Ubuntu 12.04 I see cyclic processes running with no userid, no pid which may correlate with bootlog messages of cwd, cmd as the kernel comes up. I also see iterative ip scans from link-local to active wlan0 in the upper UDP ranges. IE. my hardware is scanning my (whichever) OS. When booting with a Hiren's boot CD in minixp - process explorer reports 12,000 lsass.exe listings (via buffer overflow access) by the time I can get it open. This happens with NO HDDs at all and continues until the system BSODs. This is not a hardware problem...
I have pulled the cmos battery and generated a cmos checksum error and subsequent reboot, but cannot rid my machine of this malware. While I suspect it is in fact a variant of this:
Deactivating BIOS rootkit
I cannot confirm this and until it is removed the machine remains unsecured despite locked down ubuntu denying access. Hardware doesn't need to ask permission after all, and even ubuntu doesn't report hardware processes not under it's control.
So, my questions are:
1) How can I access the advanced BIOS menu on my dv7-4069wm (f10 then 'A') is fail.
2) Are ACPI tables updated via BIOS flash?
3) Are ACPI tables erased with CMOS battery removal?
4) How can I ensure my BIOS is not shadowed while reflashed with no BIOS menu to disable it?
5) How can I disable (or reset to dormant) the absolute firmware embedded in my bios for theft recovery because it seems like someone has stolen my hardware from my control. While this was purchased legally, troubleshooting this problem may have produced a similar race condition to activate computrace, or it may be the vehicle for my problems.
I have tested memory thoroughly, tried four (two new) HDDs, zero'd MBR w/live ubu cd between installs.
I welcome any input on this (links please) but leave this as a warning in the event I do not see any.
There is BIOS malware out there, and even the stuff with best of intent (link above) holds little encrypted/authenticated security that it may be easily circumvented and taken over. I'm not looking to convince anyone, rather seeking help from those who understand the problem (or any portion herein). It seems many remain in denial that this can happen to them, and honestly it may have and you would never know until remote folks got sloppy (In my case rootkit w/popups - they got greedy)
TIA
-Hyar

Further History:
At one point I was (it seemed) able to flash using the win+b keys, and even successfully flahsed the version stamp using the arrow key "forceflash". The platform.ini it appears has no bearing on this type of flash however as it's not necessarily there and as such the "rom protected areas" reported by BIOS (and currently under remote owner control) do NOT get updated.
There is provision for updating portions of ROM including those reported protected using the platform.ini file called by the insyde win-flash tool, however it seems those now in charge have made provision to handle this.
In my user rights curcumvented windows, I am able to run the BIOS update extraction tool (runas admin), and subsequent insyde flash utility all at once (decompress, and run via selfex package). No success as defaults are either being burnt to inneffective ghost ROM, or the default platform.ini file does not flash protected areas including acpi. If however, I edit platform.ini changing ANYTHING (even one flag) - the OS reports incompatibility of flash tool.
I prepared an SD card (only way to write lock the HP_TOOLS folder) and a win+b recovery flash boot will seem to switch to flash mode (no screen bios load) but will not recognize the flashfile, or fails to flash it.
With an ubuntu live cd, any creation of a fat32 usb drive was thwarted when the filesystem was named "HP_TOOLS" as it was rewritten to "HP_TOOLS nA" on save. Nice catch, hacker.
Futher, There are mutliple ACPI entries for "BIOS read, BIOS write which I cannot seem to confirm should exist in ACPI at all.
Currently running laptop with no battery and cmos battery out.
This is a nasty tick and well burrowed.
I don't know who is reading this, but I hope it helps someone.
If you have a clue/hint/lead to offer I do welcome another perspective.

Solaris 10 - Installing Errors - Dell Dimension 4100

Hello All,
I am tring to install Solaris 10 on a Dell Dimension 4100 system. I am getting an error, then the system reboots.
I am able to boot the Solaris 10 (03/05) DVD, I downloaded.
I get prompted : "Type of Installation you want to perform"
No matter which option I chose - I get the same results.
I get the msg: "Booting Kernel/Unix"
I then get the msg : "Configuring devices"
The screen flashing with information, then the computer reboots.
Computer Specs:
PIII 866mhz
256MB RAM
ATI 32MB Radeon
40G HD
DVD Writer
CD Writer
3COM NIC
SB Live
I checked in the BIOS - nothing about ACPI.
I am able to install multiple distros of Linux with no issues. I have not try to install any of the BSD's.
I tried to install Solaris 8, but I was unable. The issue was an open memory slot. I have 1 256mb memory card.
I was able to install Solaris 9 but I had an issue with a virus on my Windows side. I had to completly format the drive.
I have read alot aboiut Solaris 10 and wanted to give it try. I have installed via VMware.
I am tring to install only the Solaris 10 - no other OS will be on the HD.
Thank you in Advance,
Harry

I don't know why Solaris is so good at finding faulty ram. Windows seems to instal but will crash randomly (Nothing unusual there :) so it's hard to say the memory is bad). I don't really use Linux that much so Ive never run it on a machine with faulty ram.
If we have a machine which is acting up in windows we simply try to boot solaris. If it fails then we change the ram and it usually fixes the problem. It's just our experience.
I hope that the second sim fixes your problem
Good Luck

Resource Conflict on Solaris 8 Intel Edition

Installing Solaris 8 on a Compaq Presario getting a resource conflict: Non-ACPI device: PNP0C01 MEmory:20000000-203FFFFF, FFEE0000-FFEFFFFF, FFFE0000-FFFFFFF ACPI device: PNP0C01 Memory: CA000-CBFFF, 13BF0000-13BFFFFF, FFFF0000-FFFFFFF, 9E800-FFFF, 40F0000-13BEFFFF, FFEF0000-FFEFFFFF. Install finishes device scan and hangs after selecting installation options. How do I get around this resource conflict which I think causes the install to hang?

hi
I have got same problem .....but ignore the problem ...it should be fine.

Com.mysql.jdbc.PacketTooBigException when creating a DB Table resource

Hellos.
I am trying to add an Oracle Database Table resource to my IDM 6.0 system.
On the the last screen of the wizard, when I save my details, I see this error in red:
==> com.mysql.jdbc.PacketTooBigException: Packet for query is too large (1340540 > 1048576). You can change this value on the server by setting the max_allowed_packet' variable.
I have a mysql repository and use Tomcat 4.1 (on Windows).
Questions...
What file do I edit?
Do I add this parameter.. if so what value do I use?
Who else has seen this?
thanks.. GF

You need to change "my.ini" file for MySQL, usualy it is in windows folder.
Change the value of 'max_allowed_packet' in my.ini file to some thing like 16M.
I hope it helps..
