Intallation loop after configuring X in Solaris 8

The installation program gets into a loop after configuring X.
It test my X setting, attempt to continue the installation, laungh a X test screen, goes back to the logging screen and says "All devices configured" go back to X test screen and then bag to the log screen and says the same "All devices configured" again. And it does it forever.
Does any one has an idea what is going on?
Thanks

Try to "bypass" the X11 server configuration, and finish the
installation in text mode.
Once solaris is installed, try to install:
- the latest solaris X11 video driver patch (109401-10 )
http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/show.pl?target=patches/xprod-Solaris_x86IntelDrivers&nav=pub-patches
- or the Solaris XFree86 Video Drivers and Porting Kit
http://soldc.sun.com/developer/support/driver/tools/video/video-index.html
Try to configure the video card with the "kdmconfig" program,
when logged in as user "root".

  • Fresh install of solaris 10 x86 hangs after 'Configuring devices'

    Hi All,
    I just received a new SuperMicro server with an LSI MegaRAID SAS 9261-8i controller. While trying to install Solaris 10 it hangs after "Configuring devices". I checked the LSI page and Solaris 10 is supported according to them. Any ideas how to proceed?
    Fairly new to Solaris on x86 hardware.
    The system has a Xeon X5690 processor in an Intel Workstation Board S5520SC motherboard. The motherboard documents claim that not disabling usb 2.0 can hang an install. I have disabled the usb 2.0 in the bios but the system still hangs. Booting it with the -kd and -kv options don't give much information.
    Any help is appreciated. I might be returning these machines if I can't get this worked out.
    Cheers,
    Steve

    See if you can add the verbose option "-v" to the kernel boot options. I think you can get to the GRUB menu off the Solaris 10 install disk. That should tell you what device is causing the hang, or at least the last device that worked.
    Also, can you try Solaris 11 and see if it gets past that point? A few years ago I has a similar issue with Solaris 10 on a Dell server. Solaris 11/OpenSolaris worked fine, though. IIRC I could work around the issue if I disabled the 2nd CPU - Solaris 10 had a problem bringing up the 2nd CPU on that Dell's CPU/MB config.

  • 4404 WLC stuck in boot loop after upgrade

    In prepping for the upgrade to 4.1.185.0 I've got two controllers at different sites stuck in a boot loop after applying 4.0.219.0. Units will not even get to the <ESC> option menu.
    ANy ideas?

    Did you clear the configuration on the controller by using Option 5 in the boot menu? This will corrupt the boot image. You should not choose the clear config (option 5) from the boot menu on controllers running 3.2.78.0, 3.2.116.21, 3.2.150.6 or 3.2.150.10, 3.2.171.5 or 3.2.171.6, 4.0.155.5 or 4.0.179.8 and 4.0.179.11.

  • Bpdu guard status still reflected disabled after configuration

    Hi,
    Has anyone encountered after configuring
    (config#)spanning-tree portfast bpduguard default
    bpdu guard status still reflected disabled after configuration using
    #sh spanning-tree summary totals
    Thanks.
    Christina

    BPDU Guard takes effect only on portfast ports. You can therefore think of BPDU guard the same as portfast BPDU guard when a port is a portfast port.
    PortFast BPDU guard can prevent loops by moving a nontrunking port into the errdisable state when a BPDU is received on that port. When the BPDU guard feature is enabled on the switch, spanning tree shuts down PortFast-configured interfaces that receive BPDUs, rather than putting them into the spanning tree blocking state. In a valid configuration, PortFast-configured interfaces do not receive BPDUs. Reception of a BPDU by a PortFast-configured interface signals an invalid configuration, such as connection of an unauthorized device. The BPDU guard feature provides a secure response to invalid configurations, because the administrator must manually put the interface back in service.
    When enabled on the switch, spanning tree applies the PortFast BPDU guard
    feature to all PortFast-configured interfaces.
    Portfast BPDU guard can be enabled or disabled on a global basis, thus
    affecting all ports with portfast configured.

  • HT6114 Reboot loop after 10.9.2 upgrade

    My 2009 (dual-quad) Mac Pro 4,1 is now stuck in a reboot loop after upgrading from 10.9.1 to 10.9.2.
    //edit: I realized there wasn't a question: What is wrong with my computer and how do I fix it?
    So far I have tried:
    * Repairing the disk
    * Repairing permissions
    * Zapping the NVRAM/PRAM
    * Resetting SMC
    * Copying BootCache.playlist from a backup to /var/db
    Other things to note about my setup:
    In addition to the original hard drive, I installed a 4tb drive from which I have been working with since June. It is the 4tb drive that has 10.9.2 installed. The original 650gb still has 10.8.4 installed and all my original data pre-June.
    Also installed is a VisionTek Radeon 7870 video card which powers my numerous monitors. I do not recall having to install anything extra, or modify any settings to get it to work. The only downside is you can't really see anything when booting.
    In addition to the VisionTek card I also have one of the factory Geforce 120 cards installed. Using another monitor attached to that card I've been able to monitor the boot process using the command-v verbose output.
    Of notable interest I get the dreaded "BootCache: unable to open /var/db/BootCache.playlist : 2" error, along with a few SMC errors. If these are important I can attach pictures taken of the boot process.
    I am able to zap the NVRAM and boot the old 10.8.4 650gb drive. It loads fine. 10.9.2 will not boot into safe mode, but will boot into recovery mode.
    As a final attempt to fix the BootCache error I copied it from a Time Machine backup into /var/db/ ensuring the correct permissions were set. After rebooting the file is deleted again.
    I would greatly appreciate any help on this issue as this is my work computer. I do have full backups via Time Machine so I can reinstall, but I'm hoping there's another solution.

    I just started a discussiion related to this topic in "Mac Pro."
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/25019730#25019730
    " I have a 2009 dual quad core Mac Pro (4.1) with an upgraded Radeon 7950 GPU. I use a 30" Apple Cinema display (DVI) and  a 27" LED Cinema Display (Display Port). After updating to 10.9.2, the Mac would not boot, but went on a continuous re-boot cycle every 5-10 minutes without a flicker of life in either display. I unplugged both displays and the Mac booted. I could log in remotely from my laptop. I then attached the 30" Cinema Display into the DVI port and the Mac booted normally."

  • ITunes movies no longer sync from Dell laptop or MacBook Pros (both authorized devices) to iPhone 6s or iPad Air 2s after configured at Apple store yesterday.  In the past I could see the movies in iTunes with the cover photo and sync.

    iTunes movies no longer sync from Dell laptop or MacBook Pros (both authorized devices) to iPhone 6s or iPad Air 2s after configured at Apple store yesterday.  In the past I could see the movies in iTunes with the cover photo and sync to the other devices but now there is a listing a movies with no cover photos and in fact if I try to view the movie on the MacBook Pro it cannot be found unless I download it.

    All I had to do was complain.  I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store.  I have no idea why.

  • Satellite L675 is locked in a loop of "configuring system"

    I have a Satellite L675 pre-loaded with Windows7 64-bit, because it was very slow so I decided to recovere it to the factory default out-of-box.
    But it has now been locked in a loop of "configuring system" with several reboots for more than an hour - does that make any sense?
    Regards,

    Hello
    The recovery process takes a very long time and your notebook will restart several times during this process. A lot of drivers and tools will be installed so its not unusual.
    In my opinion you should wait a little bit longer until recovery installation finished successfully. Just relax during this time with newspaper and coffee ;)

    how to stop a while loop after certain time using Elapsed time vi.

    Hi Frankie,
    Just place the Elapsed Time VI inside the WHILE loop, and wire the 'Time Has Elapsed' output to the conditional terminal in the lower right corner (which should be set to 'stop if true' by default).
    In the future, please post your LabVIEW questions to the LabVIEW Forum.  You have a much better chance of getting your questions answered sooner, and those answers can then help others who are searching the LabVIEW forums.  Thanks!

  • Z68a-gd65 boot loop after bios update using USB

    Hi there,
    My  z68a-gd65 (G3) went into a boot loop after I did a bios update from a USB key that I installed using the latest BIOS version on the MSI site 7681vP8.zip
    After the system restarted, it keeps booting up for 5 seconds and then shutting down, I removed all external devices and the Geforce GTX 550 Ti card and used the onboard card, but still no change...
    Is there a way to set the board to factory defaults again???
    Marcel

    Hi there,
    Maybe for others to solve the same problem, I found out what was the cause of this problem, I had a USB/Firewire card installed in the PC, after removing it the BIOS update could proceed from the USB stick as planned.
    After the update though, my USB/firewire card can still not be installed back into the slot, because doing so will make the boot loop appear again, very odd!
    Does anyone know why this new BIOS will not work with the card that has been inside my PC for 2 years???

  • Configuring networking on Solaris 10

    How do I configure networking on Solaris 10, is there a single command or must I edit each file individually?
    If so, what's the format of /etc/hostname.hme0

    turnstile:
    That advice will only work if the original poster has
    a Sun SPARC system with certain integrated 10/100 Ethernet.
    They didn't tell us what system they actually had.
    The device instance name applies to its associated chipset.
    HME is different from ERI, is different from DMFE, is different from DNET, is different from IPBR, etc, etc, etc.
    etcetra:
    Do the sys-unconfig procedure. If you have a recognized network controller,
    it will prompt you with sufficient questions to configure it,
    particularly if you do not know what actual chipset you might have,
    and want a setup that survives a reboot.

  • Forms Applet hangs after configuration of webutil

    Hi,
    I have Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 with Oracle Database 10g on Windows 2000 server. Browser is IE6
    Our application was working fine. But for one of the functionality, we used webutil and after configuration of webutil on AS, the application is not launching.
    Applet hangs showing applet initiated and in java console it shows
    Downloading http://localhost/forms/java/frmwebutil.jar to JAR cache
    RegisterWebUtil - Loading WebUtil Version 1.0.6.
    I have signed both frmwebutil.jar and jacob.jar.
    I have followed all steps mentioned in the document for configuration.
    I think still there is something missing.
    Please give some pointers on resolving this issue.
    Thanks

    Do the following:
    1. On client machine, exit all open browsers.
    2. If you are running Developer Suite, stop OC4J.
    3. Manually delete JAR cache. Delete all files in:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<USER NAME>\Oracle Jar Cache
    4. Delete the following file (your JInitiator version may be different):
    C:\Documents and Settings\<USER NAME>\jinitiator13129.trace
    5. Open the Jinitiator Control Panel which can be found on the Windows Control Panel and add the following to the "Java Runtime Parameters" on the Basic tab:
    -Djavaplugin.trace=true -Djavaplugin.trace.option=basic
    Click on Apply and exit the Control Panel
    6. On the server, add the following to the formsweb.cfg:
    WebUtilLogging=on
    WebUtilLoggingDetail=normal
    WebUtilErrorMode=Alert
    6. If the server is a Unix platform, recompile the form and ensure that you use the COMPILE_ALL=YES option.
    7. Retest one time. Do not try more than one time as this will create too many entries in the trace file.
    8. After the failure has reproduced, exit the form and the browser. Open the new jinitiator13129.trace file and carefully review. It is likey you will find the cause of the problem in this file. At minimum, a hint should be offered.
