Anyone installs Solaris 10 in a Netra X1 ??

Hi !!
Excuse me for the tiny english,isn't my native languaje, I'm spanish ;-)
I'm trying to install Solaris 10 OS in my Netra X1. This machine doesn't have CD/DVD-ROM device, so I'm trying to install over the network. Also I have a Ultra10 working (with Solaris 10 too), which that's ready with installserver shared by NFS (step by step from documentation). Using 'add_client_install' with Ultra10 MAC address etc all good.
I can boot the setup program from the Netra X1 (I can see it with LOM throught terminal), and I can configure the net, timezone, packages to install etc. Also I can configure the slices in the disk (original IDE disk from Sun that becomes with the machine)
All's fine, but before the install program fails to finish (before the 100% installing packages). The fail consist in some errors than "Can't write /etc/vfstab" and similar.
The Solaris 10 installation always fails in this moment :-(
Well, trying again, reboot the machine (reboot in the middle of Solaris 10's setup program) and the sol10's kernel loads ok, but can't find /sbin/init and other files, so I doesn't boot properly.
Trying to change install server (deleting install server files and rebuilding again), downloading new DVD ISOs from Internet, and
i got the same error. Installing core, OEM or End-user cluster packages got the same error.
Please, help me with this question ... �Thank you very much!

I have successfully installed Solaris 10 on 6 Netra X1 using jumpstart. 5 with single disk and 1 with mirrored disks.
If there is nothing wrong with the target disk or the installation image then I would guess the installer is complaining that the size of one of the slices is too small. You could try installing with just a swap partition and put all the rest in the root partition.

  • Some steps for configuring  Network are skipped in installation Solaris 10

    Hi everybody !!!
    I'm a newbie in Solaris 10. I had some problems in installation Solaris 10:
    I downloaded installation packet for x64/x86 (DVD) on site Sun.I want to install Solaris 10 on my PC AMD 2500+.I connect to internet through a LAN.
    1)In process installation, some steps for configuring Network ( from 5 to 15 in Solaris 10 installation guide) were skipped automatically. It has been directly moved to 16-th step(setup Time and region). Then i tried to finish installing it. But in working with it, i recognized that Network card had been not found( i use NVIDIA nForce MCP Networking Adapter). I typed some command in console shell :
    $netstat -in
    loo...........
    and received only one row like above.
    i have tried some times , but not succeeded
    2)Port USB is also not working
    Please help me. Thanks a lot !!!

    hi Vantuan,
    guess I just posted reply to your other post...
    also check Sun hardware compatibility list for your network card here:

  • Network Booting Solaris 10 on Netra T4 - scratch memory overflow error

    Hi,
    I recently got a hold of a Netra T4 server, and am now trying to install Solaris 10 on it. Since the server can DVD-driveless, I had to resort to booting it over the network from a boot server. I have progressed through a series of errors, from not configuring the NFS correctly, to making sure the RARP was on as well.
    The current issue that I am having is when i start the boot (boot net -v install), it begins to load the image, and then haults when it reaches:
    Rebooting with command: boot net -v install
    Boot device: /pci@8,700000/network@5,1: File and args: -v install
    38e00 Using RARP/BOOTPARAMS...

    panic - boot: boot: scratch memory overflow.

    I'm not exactly sure why this is occuring, or what I can do to resolve this. Has anyone else come across this scenario? Judging from google searches, I haven't found anything that can help me fix this. Hopefully someone can.
    Thanks a ton,

    as well, I have tried using various directories to install from, all coming to the same result.

    that path was one of the specific paths that I used to manipulate the boot. I resulted to trying this because it was unable to load from kernel/sparcv9/unix. This thing is, that path is available on the media that I am using, so I have no idea why is it saying it can't find it.
    The path that you see:
    <pub/install/Solaris_10/Tools/Boot/platform/SUNW,Netra-T4/kernel/drv/sparcv9/lombus>
    was one of the paths that I tried using to get it to install from, because it said it couldn't find the default path. The path you see just happened to be the one that was on the screen when I copied it to show the error message in this thread.
    As you can see, I'm a little stuck. As it stands...I don't know many things about installing on sparc servers.
    With that said, any help would do. At the moment, I am downloading the Solaris 9 media, and then I will try to get at Solaris 10 by upgrading the software. If this fails, I will just buy a DVD drive.
    Can anyone still help me?

  • LMS 3.2 Installation - Solaris 10/09 Patch Conflict:

    Hello all,
    We are running Sun Solaris 10/09,working on installing LMS 3.2.As per documentation,attempted to install the two recommended patches,127127-11 and 122032-05.
    The 127127-11 patch is already contained in this OS packaging.The second recommended patch - 122032-05 -  does not install since there exists another patch - 141518-11 -  that makes the second recommended patch(122032-05) obsolete.
    The 141518-11 patch cannot be uninstalled since there is no backout data for it.
    What do you recommend I do to solve this issue as I cannot move ahead with the installation as things stand.
    Should I use an older release of Solaris 10 that is still downloadable from the Sun Website?If so,can anyone recommend a tried and tested release I can use.
    Many thanks,
    W.

    Hi all,
    Just resifted through the documentation and they have stated the supported releases:
    "The following Solaris 10 releases are supported in LMS 3.2:
    –Solaris 10, 05/09 release
    –Solaris 10, 10/08 release
    –Solaris 10, 05/08 release
    –Solaris 10, 08/07 release
    –Solaris 10, 11/06 release"
    Will give the installation a shot with 10/08.
    Regards,
    W.

  • Problem on installation Solaris 10 on virtualbox 3.0.8

    I want to install solaris 10 as a guest system on virtualbox in Windows XP sp3.
    I downloaded the solaris.10.for.x86.dvd disc already.
    The installing progress hold on "Skipped interface e1000go" for a long time.
    After that, it went into the step of "Select a Language"...
    But either the keyboard or mouse does work at all.
    The installation dead on showing "Please ....... help: _"
    The cursor stopped flicking, showing on the screen all the time.
    No matter which key I hitted, there isn't any response at all...
    I waited it for more than 8 hours, nothing happened...
    Who could tell me why? Thanks for all...
    Host system: WinXP SP3
    Guest system: Solaris 10
    Virtualbox: ver 3.0.8
    The guest system used the default configurations.

    You can try the newly released Solaris 10 10/09 VDI image from:
    https://cds.sun.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/CDS-CDS_SMI-Site/en_US/-/USD/ViewProductDetail-Start?ProductRef=virtualbox-s10U8-x86-G-F@CDS-CDS_SMI
    This is a complete ready-to-run image that won't require installing. It might help debug issues such as keyboard and mouse, separating it from install issues.

  • Solaris 8 on netra T1 error - drive not ready

    Hi I am hoping someone can help shed light on a problem we have encountered. I inherited a couple of very old netra t1 with solaris 8 on them.  We had a major power outage whcih resulted in an issue with this server coming backup.  On first looking at it i was able to get into the server via lom command prompt, i ran the power down command to gracefully shutdown and reboot but on starting backup the server is reporting 'drive not ready' and just hangs at this point.
    apologies but i am a solaris novice, any help would be much appreciated. I am hoping this is something trivial....
    thanks.

    Just to update we suffered another power outage and returned to look at hte server to find different error messages appearing, this time the server was giving me the option to try and boot or go into single user mode, which i did and ran the metastat and got the following:-

  • Solaris 8 in Netra t1 105

    Hi, all.
    I get a couple of netra t1 105, and I'thinking about install Solaris 8 02/02.
    Does the netra support that release?.
    If so, need I patch them?.
    Where can I get information about hardware platforms witch support Solaris 8. I didn�t find any about this in sunsolve.com
    Any info is welcome.
    Thanks all.

    The SunSolve System Handbook will show you minimum OS requirements for any Sun machine. The sun4u architecture (includes Netra t1 105) is in no danger of going End Of Life any time soon as it is supported in Solaris 9 and future Solaris 10. The support for sun4d architecture (SPARC Center 1000 & 2000) got dropped in Solaris 9. sun4m architecture (SPARC 5, 10 & 20) may get dropped in Solaris 10 but the sun4u architecture will be around for a while. There hasn't been a new architecture released since sun4u so there's nothing to worry about for quite a while.See:
    http://sunsolve.Sun.COM/handbook_pub/Systems/Netra_t1_105/Netra_t1_105.html

  • Solaris 10 on Netra T1 install issues....

    I have gentoo installed on my netraT1 (which is apparently in the sun4u Platform Group) it has a 500mhz UltraSparc IIe processor and 1Gig of RAM.
    I decided to try solaris 10 so I downloaded all the cd images to my winows machine and used nero to burn them all. I put the first one in and typed boot cdrom and got a panic:

    I have no really good answer here..
    I guess you are using a Netra T1 AC200, right?
    Some futher questions;
    Are you using an internal CD-Rom?
    Have you tried the CD-Rom before so you know it works?
    What happens if you try "boot cdrom" without inserting any CD? I think the bootpath to the cd-rom looks a bit strange, and testing that would be the easiest way of verifying if its correct or not. If the path is correct you should get a different error if you attemt to boot from a non-existing CD.
    Last question; which Solaris 10 version did you download?
    7/M.

  • Attempting to install Solaris 10 on Netra t1 via external DVD-Rom

    Hello Experts,
    I am trying to install Solaris 10 on my Netra t1 via external DVD. I connected the DVD-ROM to the scsi port on the back. System recognized the DVD but does not allow me to boot from it. I have done many things without any success. Following are the details:
    System info:
    Netra t1 (UltraSPARC-IIi 440MHz), No Keyboard
    OpenBoot 3.10.25 ME, 1024 MB memory installed,
    Ran the scsi test and it doesn't report any issues:
    ok test scsi
    Probe-scsi-all shows the drive:
    ok probe-scsi-all
    /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/scsi@2
    Target 0
    Unit 0 Disk SEAGATE ST318404LSUN18G 4207
    Target 1
    Unit 0 Disk SEAGATE ST318404LSUN18G 4207
    Target 4
    Unit 0 Removable Read Only device TOSHIBA DVD-ROM SD-M14011009
    devalias also shows as cdrom1:
    ok devalias
    cdrom1 /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/scsi@2/disk@6,0:f
    cdrom /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@1/ide@e/cdrom@2:f
    ide-disk /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@1/ide@e/disk@0:f
    ide-cdrom /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@1/ide@e/cdrom@2:f
    ide /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@1/ide@e
    I created devalias manually also with no help. Following is what I get when I try to boot from it:
    ok boot cdrom1
    Resetting ...
    Netra t1 (UltraSPARC-IIi 440MHz), No Keyboard
    OpenBoot 3.10.25 ME, 1024 MB memory installed,
    Executing last command: boot cdrom1
    Boot device: /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/scsi@2/disk@6,0:f File and args:
    Drive not ready
    Evaluating: boot cdrom1
    Can't open boot device
    I verified the DVD and it works just fine. I install the OS with the same DVD on Netra-440 system without any issues.
    Please tell me what am I missing here or doing wrong. Please help.

    Sun-worshiper,
    Thank you so much for pointing that out. I was loosing it.
    Just in case someone else runs into this type of issue:
    When you run probe-scsi-all please pay attention to the target. In order to boot from the DVD, I executed the following commands from the ok prompt:
    ok nvalias dvd /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/scsi@2/disk@4,0:f
    ok boot dvd

  • Installation solaris with cdrom

    Hi folks
    I would install Solaris 7 on a Enterprise 250 Server with OBP 3.16.

    Is this ok ? Does it mean that the DVD-ROM connected to the SCSI properly ?

  • Problem occured with installation Solaris 10 on x86!

    Hello all!
    I am a newbie with Solaris, please help me to resolve this problem following:
    I setup successfully Solaris 10 on my PC, during the processing, I did not choose value option for DHCP (Option No), then, the host name was unknown
    I set the name for NFS as Ora9i. But when my Solaris operating system startup, it request login console. I tried to test with host name "unknown", password correctly, but I did not log in console or XWindows.
    How do I do now?
    Thank you!

    (I am not sure that the install process has been the correct one)
    anyway:
    at the console login prompt you have to write the superuser name and its password... not the name of the host.
    login: root
    password: rootpassword
    Regards
