Boot Device Error

Hi, can anyone help, I started up my sun sparc statioon5 thismorning, and i have this error popping up, it goes like this. Boot device: /iommu/sbus/espdma@5, 84000000/esp@5, 88000000/sd@3, 0 File and args: the file just loaded does not appear to be executable.
Do I have to re-install solaris? or is it something more..... any help is appreciated

There are 2 options, 1 I have done and the other is still untried.
1. Get the install CD and perform an upgrade to the drive to reload the system specific files.
2. There are reports of being able to boot to the cdrom and just reload the boot files form the /platform directory.
Hope this helps.

  • [SOLVED] external USB HDD fails to install arch w/boot device ERROR

    I've been working on installing arch linux via an external USB harddrive (specifically seagate free agent go 320GB) for 1 week now, and everytime I failed - until TODAY! thankfully I found this post, where user Dieter@be references this link, which displays BUG ID#17231 at the top titled "Can't boot LiveCDs 2009.08 (/dev/archiso doesn't show up)". the bug report states ::
    I can't boot the LiveCDs 2009.08, neither netinstall nor core.
    When it tries to access /dev/archiso it shows these messages:
    :: Waiting for boot device ...
    Waiting 30 seconds for device /dev/archiso ...
    ERROR: boot device didn't show up after 30 seconds ...
    Falling back to interactive prompt
    You can try to fix the problem manually, logout when you are finished
    ramfs$
    reading further thru this bug report, I found a very insightful post by Heiko Baums (cyberpatrol) where he says the following, and I quote ::
    Problem found. The link /dev/archiso wasn't created.
    After
    ramfs$ cd /dev
    ramfs$ ln -s sr0 archiso
    ramfs$ exit
    it continued booting correctly.
    And sg was also loaded after this. ;-)
    as you see, the bug report was for the CD version, not the USB version - yet, my issue with the USB bootdisk was the same, (no matter which boot disk I tried = netinstall, core, .img, .iso, etc) meaning I got the EXACT same error = "ERROR: boot device didn't show up after 30 seconds ..." ! well, I figured that I'd try one of the new fancy ISOs found @ http://build.archlinux.org/isos/ - specifically I use/used archlinux-2010.03.04-netinstall-x86_64.iso.
    upon running Unetbootin from windows 7, and choose to install the ISO archlinux-2010.03.04-netinstall-x86_64.iso to my first partition on my USB harddrive (that first partition being FAT32, and had already been set as bootable previously), that completed successfully. I rebooted, and choose to boot from USB drive, the ISOlinux bootloader came up as normal, I choose DEFAULT and off it went.... sure enough, it errored out at the same place as listed in the bug report ::
    :: Waiting for boot device ...
    Waiting 30 seconds for device /dev/archiso ...
    ERROR: boot device didn't show up after 30 seconds ...
    Falling back to interactive prompt
    You can try to fix the problem manually, logout when you are finished
    ramfs$
    this time though, I issued the following 2 commands ::
    ln -s /dev/sdb1 /dev/archiso
    exit
    from there, EVERYTHING worked as it should!
    to recap: the solution for me was create a symbolic link pointing /dev/archiso => to my partition which held the archlinux netinstall (which is where I told Unetbootin to install it to)! done and done. I felt this needed to be posted here, as I could not find this solution after MANY google searches, archlinux wiki searches, forum searches, etc. honestly, I think it would be prudent to have this tidbit of information added to the Install from USB stick archwiki page as a side note to those that may run into this issue.
    this is not the FIRST time I have run into this problem with a USB install of archlinux, but this is the FIRST time I found a fix! thanks to all the great posts I reference here, without this information I dont think I would have been able to install archlinux on my new alienware m11x laptop.
    -peace-
    PS: no amount of rootdelay=XX  nor pmedia=usb  nor usbdelay=XX would work in my above attempts either.

    FAT16 here. Parted Magic sees my USB drive as sdd. I tried your way and surprise, surprise, it didn't work.
    ln -sf /dev/sdd /dev/archiso
    mount -t vfat /dev/archiso /bootmnt
    mount : Invalid argument
    I thought maybe you meant mount -f vfat /dev/archiso /bootmnt instead. I tried it too, it resulted in a kernel panic.
    What else can I try besides installing from a IDE/SATA CD drive ? Because this issue is NOT solved. At least not for me. Wonder if "archlinux-2010.04.05-netinstall-i686.iso" from the here will solve it (really hope so).

  • "Inaccessible boot device" error message when I try to boot up.

    Greetings, I recently upgraded to Windows 10, and I wanted to do a factory reset yesterday. I did this, and when it tried to boot up after it was finished I got the error message "Inaccessible boot device", and then my computer kept on restarting itself over and over, and never getting into the OS properly. I am using a Portege R705-P35. I tried searching for the device drivers to install on a USB and booting from this, but my computer could not boot from this properly.  So i believe my problem is related to the device driver. What is the exact driver I need to boot up? I checked the Toshiba site and there was a list of about 25 drivers for my PC, and I'm not sure which would work.  All help is greatly appreciated on this  

    I have excatly the same issue on my WT8-A.  I have been running Windows 10 as an Insider for months on the device, and after RTM decided to do a full reset.  I now get the same message as the OP saying "INACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE" I now have an unusabe device.  Please help.

  • Compaq presario cq61-411wm no booting device error/"hard disk not exist" help!!

    screen is cracked so hooked up a external monitor. no bootable device error in white on black screen. did tests all passes except hard disk. this one gives " hard disk not exist" error..trying to save all my pix of my sons on computer.someone please help!! thanks in advance!! =D

    Did you drop the laptop? If the computer is not "seeing" the hard drive your only hope is that the hard drive got knocked loose and is still good, just not connected. Otherwise a drop that can crack a screen may well have also killed the hard drive.

  • Proper BOOT device error

    Hello. I restored my com to out-of box setting. Now, when my com starts it indicates "Check cable connection!, Reboot and select proper boot device." I do not have the CD. Is there anyway I can add/change the settings via F2 , ?, etc. in order to get my laptop working. I have a SATELLITE L855D-S5200. Thank you

    Hi ! If you are wanting to change boot order, try this. You may also want to set BIOS back to default.

  • Satellite M50D-A-10W - "reboot and select proper boot device" error

    I have a Toshiba Satellite M50D-A-10W that went all "reboot and select proper boot device" nuts on me.
    This occurred before and it was solved by alt-ctr-del then F12 to enter BIOS where the date had gone back to sometime in 2010 - after bringing it up to the present and changing the boot device, everything worked fine ... until the next day.
    Now I get the "reboot and select proper boot device" screen, but the F12 key doesn't work; I also tried F2 ... the message keeps multiplying, no BIOS ...

  • Windows Inaccessible Boot Device Error

    I recently upgraded to a K8N Neo 2 Platinum with an Athlon 65 3500.  I used my WD Caviar IDE 40 GB drive (boot drive) from my old computer.  There are no detection problems and the POST proceeds normally.  As Windows is loading up I get a blue screen error that says INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE.  It tells me to run CHKDSK.  I have done this, and tested the drive with the WD diagnostic tools.  The test report says there are no errors.  I even tried restoring an older boot track.  Still nothing.  Any ideas?

  • Error Message: Reboot and Select proper Boot device.

    My HP desktop computer (model p6654y) will not boot directly into Windows.
    I can ALWAYS make it boot into Windows by first pressing the F10 key to enter the BIOS. If I then exit the BIOS (without even making any changes), the computer will boot into Windows.
    If I don't first enter the BIOS, the computer will USUALLY take me to a black screen that says:
    "Reboot and Select proper Boot device. Or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key."
    At this point it won't boot any further.
    Also, the last message the BIOS displays (before the error) is:
    "00 USB mass storage devices found and configured".
    After that, all of the lines of text on the screen move up one level and then the screen goes black and soon after I get the Proper Boot Device error.
    I do not have anything plugged into USB ports except an ordinary mouse and ordinary keyboard (both of which I changed - in case they were faulty). 
    My BIOS is set to boot from the Hard Drive first.
    I reset my CMOS.
    I do not have a CD in the CD drive.
    It used to be that this would ALWAYS happen if I (1) Turned off the Computer, (2) Unplugged it for 60 seconds, (3) Plugged it back in, and (4) Turned it on.  Now (after trying various things), it only SOMETIMES happens when I do this.
    Any ideas?

    Hello @GardenGuy1,
    I have read your post on how your desktop computer is having a difficult time booting into Windows, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
    To further diagnose this issue, I recommend testing the health of your system's hard drive by following the steps in this document on Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 7). If the hard drive is found to be in good working order, I also suggest restoring your BIOS back to factory settings. This can be done by following this document on Recovering the BIOS. 
    Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!
    Regards
    MechPilot

  • Fresh install of Server 2012 R2 causes inaccessible boot device on first Reboot

    Hello Everyone, 
    Doing a fresh install of Windows Server 2012 R2 on a SuperMicro X9DRT-HF+ motherboard based server. The server is using iSCSI boot, setup detects the iSCSI disk and copies its files, finishes the "Getting files ready for installation" "Installing
    Updates" phase, reboots, takes a while and eventually gives a Blue screen with Inaccessible Boot Device error. I have tried some changing options in the BIOS, I've had Nimble (storage array) support on the phone and they confirmed the setup is correct
    but for some reason after the first reboot Windows can no longer find its install files and gives a BSOD.
    Additional Information: 
    Server: SuperMicro X9DRT-HF+ (no internal disk)
    Storage: iSCSI disk provided from Nimble CS220 Array
    Windows 2008 R2 Server installation will proceed without any problems.
    I checked the \Windows\Panther\Setupact.log / CBS.log file and there doesn't seem to be anything indicating a problem. 
    I have googled a number of times to find solutions but most articles reference a similar problem after installing a particular KB (which shouldn't be the case here). Need some help :) 

    Hey Tim,
    Thanks for your reply, since the start of this post I have also installed MDT to try a different approach to installing the OS. Using MDT I have injected the Intel I350 driver into the installation so it should be restarting with the driver loaded.
    The odd thing is that when the server reboots the Windows startup screen loads for about 4 minutes before it gives the INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE error. This would indicate to me that it sees the disk and tries to boot from it but then something goes wrong.
    Other than the \Windows\Panther location is there another place I should be looking for log files during this part of the Windows install? I have reviewed all the locations listed under the TechNet library article "hh824819" (I can't post
    a link to the article but a google search brings it up) but I can't seem to find a log of when the server crashes what it is doing at that point.

  • Inaccessible boot device win 8 install U410

    Hello,
    I've bought an upgrade for Win 8 pro. Since then i get an inaccessible boot device error when i try to install. I've read the forum to devide the SSD and the regular harddrive but the Rapid drive program won't install. Please come with a solution, Because it's a bad case. Lenovo says you can upgrade to win 8. But a lot of people need help, And a lot of noliage of windows. A amateur like me, it is not possible to get windows 8 running on my U410. 

    And what about the small onekry button. Same condition. The button is on the side.

  • ZCM 11.3.1 and BSOD (7B Inaccessible boot device)

    Hi all,
    We have been struggling with seemingly random BSOD for many months across our laptop and desktop fleet. Different vendors, model, different model hard drives.
    Today we have finally been able to do something that has been reproducible, for probably the first time.
    (Thanks to Donald Jones, Great Basin College for the push in the right direction)
    Environment:
    Windows 7Pro SP1 (x86-64)
    Novell Client 2SP3IR8
    ZCM 11.3.1
    (Also, Mcafee Virusscan 8.8)
    1.
    On a clean HDD, we physically image (drive replicator) with our SOE (Sysprepped image, none of the above software pre-installed)
    At Windows "First Boot, OOBE", we install :
    -Machine specific drivers
    -Novell Client 2SP3IR8
    -iPrint 5.98
    -ZCM 11.3.1
    -Mcafee Virusscan 8.8
    as part of the OOBE.
    2.
    Machine completes build fine. We have had a few machines BSOD within hours. Others may take months of use.
    3.
    When a machine fails, it seems to be after a clean shutdown, at the next startup.
    At boot, the Windows Startup screen appears, but within a second or two we see a BSOD, with a 7B (Inaccessible boot device) error.
    BSOD Error details:
    0x0000007B
    (0xFFFFF880009A97E8, 0xFFFFFFFFC0000034, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000)
    4.
    If we load the SYSTEM registry hive of the device, and edit this key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4d36e967-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}
    Before: Lowerfilters: = zesdac
    After: Lowerfilters: =
    The machine will now boot OK.
    5.
    We then shutdown the device, and load the SYSTEM hive to check the key and it has been repopulated (self healed?) with:
    Lowerfilters: = zesdac
    However, we can now boot cycle the machine numerous times, and the machine boots fine, as normal.
    The c:\windows\system32\zesdac.sys file has these properties:
    File Description: Novell ZESM Device Access Control Driver
    Type: System File
    File Version: 11.3.1.214
    Product Name: Novell ZENWorks Endpoint Security
    Product Version: 11.3.1.214

    Size: 31.2 KB
    Date Modified: 24/06/2014 12:58pm

    Original Filename: ZESDAC.SYS
    These TIDs don't relate to the 11.3.1 version we use, but started me looking..
    https://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7011969
    https://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7008599
    We have also checked things like 'force run bundles' that may push changes to the device, and have disabled the 'automatic install/launch' relationships.
    We will continue to investigate, but if anyone has any further ideas, I'd love to hear them.

    We're seeing the exact same stop message, but only on a two specific model laptops from the same vendor and not our other devices (different models from same vendor and different vendors).
    It has been ongoing since March/April. It seemingly happens (BSODs) after Windows Updates have been applied and upon the next boot. It has happened to about 15 devices so far. There are about that many more that are of the same hardware/model that have not had the issue all during the same period. These devices do have SSD drives of varying vendors.
    We finally got Microsoft to investigate the issue and were able to get the machine to boot after messing with the registry hives. When they looked into the differences between the "corrupted" hives and the now working ones, they pointed to the same zesdac registry key/area as mentioned in the first post.
    "As per our discussion, after comparing your System hive. I got the conclusion that your System was in No boot situation due to the absence of following registry Key :
    HKLM\System\CCS\Services\zesdac
    And on the other hand, following filters were present on the registry location:
    HKLM\test\ControlSet001\Control\Class\{4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    UpperFilters:
    PartMgr
    LowerFilters:
    zesdac
    Our database contains 30 different files for filename zesdac.sys . This files most often belongs to product Novell ZENworks Endpoint Security. and were most often developed by company Novell, Inc. This files most often have description Novell ZESM Device Access Control Driver. This file contains driver. You can find it in the Drivers section of the System Explorer. you can find detailed information about the file itself, download information, its demographics distribution, security rating given by users, antivirus reports from AV applications, user's reviews and comments for the file and much more, which can help you to decide if the file can be safe or threat for your computer.
    Since, its lower filter was present and in services zesdac was not present. Which was ultimately leading to no boot situation."
    We're running ZEN 11.2.4 and our devices are all Win7SP1x64.
    While Microsoft was able to get the machine to boot, we're unable to install any applications (MSI/EXE), windows updates, etc... since they were able to get the machine to boot.
    So with them pointing us to ZENworks as the culprit, we're still no closer to finding a prevention or a real working fix as of yet other than re-imaging the device.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    LK

  • DV7 - Error 03F0 - No Boot Device Detected - Passes both Memory and HDD Test

    Hi there, 
    My DV7 will not boot up at all.  When powered on, I see the HP loading screen briefly, then into "dos type" font saying "No Boot Device Detected - Error 03F0"
    I have run both the memory test and hard drive test from the diagnostic menu and both come back ok.  
    A little more history on the Device/Problem; 
    2 months ago it was shutting itself off due to overheating - After a good cleaning, the temps cooled down enough that it was no longer shutting off.
    I am currently in India, plugging directly into outlets (230v power) using an adapter.  10 days ago there was a small spark at the outlet leaving a very small spot on one of the prongs of the adapter.  There was no power flicker, and it wasn't a surge, just almost like a bad connection sparking.  This "spark" seemed to have killed my charger immediately.  I used the battery until nearly dead, purchased a new charger, but when I returned and tried the new charger, it would not charge, nor power on.  When plugged in, at this point, the power/charging light on the side was lit, but not on the front.  I used a pin to open the CD drive, and the front light lit up, but it still would not power on.
    I took it to a repair shop here in India, and they managed to get it so it would power on (not sure how), but that has only brought me to where I'm at right now with the Error.  They said "It worked, and then we tested again and it didn't work and now it no work".
    My current BIOS edition is F.46.
    Essentially I'm wondering if I'm screwed - and if I'm not, then what can I do to trouble shoot/fix it?  
    P.S.  Finding parts in India that are specific to my computer will be near impossible with the technology differences.  Also, dealing with local techs is extremely difficult so I'll need to know 
    P.S.S.  I just tried to power it on again to double check the accuracy of my post and it will not power on, nor can I get the CD drive open again....

    Is the unit still in warranty?
    Based on the description of the behavior, it does sound a hardware issue beyond the hard drive.
    Was the AC adapter that was purchased an HP adapter? I know you said it is difficult to get the right parts in your area, but I want to confirm if it is an HP adapter or aftermarket.

  • I'm receiving error Boot Device Not Found and Hard disk not exist when I boot up my laptop

    I'm receicing the error Boot Device Not Found when i power on my HP G60-235DX laptop.  After following HP's recommended troubleshooting steps, I receive error Hard disk not exist.  Hmmmm....that's a little concerning.  My guess is I need a new hard drive?    I have the 17 recovery disks I made when I setup this laptop, however I'm not sure if they will resolve this issue.  Any suggestions?

    One of 3 things has happened, listed from most likely to least likely
    1. Hard drive has died, replace it with one of the same size or larger, then use the HP recovery discs to re-install windows.
    2, The motherboard has serious problems. (Replace the notebook)
    3. The hard drive cable that connects it to the motherboard has somehow failed, not very likely. (replace the cable)
    Replace the hard drive with a new one and use your recovery discs to get Windows back on it.
    Here is your service manual, will show you how to replace the hard drive
