Install Solaris 10 5/08 on T5x40 with boot device hardware Mirrored Volume
I will have to install Solaris 10 5/08 on a hardware mirrored volume as a boot default device.
According to the "T5140 & T5240" Administration Guide" (Page 57), we have to boot the server (T5140 & T5240) on a network installation image in single-user mode (*ok boot net -s*) before configuring the raid controller using "raidctl -c -r 1 c0t0d0 c0t1d0". So, I need to have a Install Server/Boot Server ready.
Is it possible to boot from the CDROM in single-user mode and then from the CDROM configure the raid controller using "raidctl -c -r 1 c0t0d0 c0t1d0" ?
Thanks in advance for the support.

Thanks for your reply.
I will try of course with the CDROM, It doesn't hurt ;-)
I was only hoping that someone could confirm. I suspect a trouble with the CDROM because it's not documented...
My customer doesn't have yet a Solaris server available where I could setup a boot/install server.
It means that I will have to find first a Solaris server and then setup the boot/install server to install the system (T5x40).
Regards,
JNV

I'm having some trouble with boot devices on my Neo Plat and I hoped someone here might have a fix.
I recently installed a new hard-drive as C. I've gone into Bios/Advanced Features and set the boot order to the following:
Hard Drive
CD-ROM
Floppy
When I reboot now I get the message "Booting from CD" which it can't do because there is no bootable CD-ROM present. I then get a message like "No Boot Device Present" and the system halts.
The strange thing is that if I select F11(Select Boot Device) at the BIOS test screen and select Hard Drive and then my C: Drive it boots just fine from that drive! But it will not do this automatically.
Anyone know what the problem might be?F11 is pr. boot only .
Need to be in the bios ..
You need to go into "hd boot priority" submenu in advanced features menu and set/save the HD order there . (number three from the top)
Toggle the boot drive from pos 1. to 2. in the list and back to pos 1.
Then save the bios and exit . -
How to Install Solaris for Intel so that it boots off from a boot floppy?
Hi all,
Sorry to bother you with this one (I went through all documentations/manuals and could not find straight answers to following
specific questions):
I have one hard drive with 1st partition used by Windows XP and a second partition that's a blank FAT 32 (using Partition Magic)
I want to use for Solaris for Intel.
My very specific questions:
(1)That blank Fat32 partition: can I run the Solaris install over it ..or should I absolutely make sure that it's a blank UFS formatted
partition? I am asking you that because all manuals (except one) pretend that I can run my Solaris install on a blank Fat partition...
but I believe that documentation at multiboot.solaris-x86.org stresses that if the partition is not a blank UFS one, it wont install Solaris
(2)As you already know, some Oses like Linux or FreeBSD can be installed on a partition and be booted off a boot floppy.
So without that boot floppy, no trace of the OS. How can I do that with Solaris for Intel. I want my Solaris to boot off a boot floppy only.
BTW, I currently have Solaris 7 for Intel.
Thanks for the answers.(1)That blank Fat32 partition: can I run the Solaris install over it ..or should I absolutely make sure that it's a blank UFS formatted You can install Solaris to that blank FAT32 drive but Solaris WILL convert it to UFS BEFORE doing the install. In other words, after the install it will be UFS and not FAT32 anymore.
So without that boot floppy, no trace of the OS. How can I do that with Solaris for Intel. I want my Solaris to boot off a boot floppy only.Not that I know of. Some people have reported booting Solaris off of a USB drive though.

Install Solaris 8 on Gateway Laptop with Windows XP
I have Gateway laptop with Windows XP pre-installed. Now I want to install Solaris 8 without removing the Windows XP. I wanted to use dual boot option. Can any body advice me if there is any whit paper on this subject(with step by step insturctions). I have partition magic but it can only partition and format to NTFS, FAT, FAT32 and Ext2 (linux only).
Thanks for your help.
ramboIt can be done but the biggest stump is the network interface. I've an Acer 350 series with a built-in NIC. I also use XFree86 because the Xsun doesn't recognize the video card. The biggest problem in getting Solaris x86 working is getting the network interface to work, since the PCMCIA support is horrible. You need to be sure the the components on your laptop conform to the HCL. As for X, just use XFree86.

Install Solaris 5.10 64 bit with Raid 1
Hi Oracle Support
At present I have two server X2270 with information below :
S erver 1 have 4 h ard d isk ( 1 h ard d isk = 1TB)
S erver 2 have a h ard d isk ( 1 h ard d isk = 1TB)
I want to Move one HDD from server list order no.1 to server list order no.2. Mean 1 of 4 HDD of server1 will move to server2
And it should be: server1 has 1TB x3 HDD and server2 has 2TBx2
After , Server1 configure with RAID5, server2 configure with RAID1 .
I configured Raid 1 on Server 2 but when I install Solaris , I don’t see Hard disk configured Raid 1 .
Thanks
LuyệnTVJust because you have two disks doesn't mean that Solaris will automatically use them as mirrors. You have to set this up, using SVM, ZFS VxVM, or the hardware RAID controller. Sometimes you can do this as part of the install, often it's done afterwards.
You haven't said what type of root file system your Solaris is on, so it's not possible to give you a procedure to mirror the boot drive.
If you use hardware RAID, it will zero any data on the drives, so that's probably out. I suspect you are using hardware management on your first system, as Solaris can't boot from a software striped or RAID5 device. This had to be setup before Solaris was installed on that system. -

Installing Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit with Boot Camp
I am using a 17" MacBook Pro with and Intel i7 2.66 GHz processor, 8GB 1067 MHz RAM and a 7200RPM 500GB hard drive. I am trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit via Boot Camp. I do what Boot Camp tells me to do, but when my MacBook Pro restarts to boot from the Windows 7 disc, all I get get is a white screen! I have tried to boot manually from the Windows 7 disc, but it won't boot. It freezes on the white screen and I have to reboot the Mac using the Mac OS X partition. How can I fix this ASAP so I can install Windows 7? I need to get it done TONIGHT!
I'd recommend posting this in the Boot Camp forum, this is a general MBP forum.
Regards,

Solaris 10 installation says I changed boot device when I didn't
Hello,
I'm new at Solaris 10, and have been trying to do a net install with Solaris 10 8/07 (127111-11, s10s_u4wos_12b) on
a brand new (but older version of Solaris 10, which is now wiped out) V245 Sunfire.
When it comes to setting up the disk for installation, I have tried a couple of different things, but all seem
to result in
"Warning: Different Boot Device
Because you have changed the boot device (where the root ('/')
file system will be created) from its previous location, you
must re-layout your disks to sync up file systems. "
So -- I have tried manual layout, auto layout (following is what I want) -- and the first
screen tells me that c0t0d0 IS my boot device!
Customize Disk: c0t0d0
Boot Device: c0t0d0s0
Entry: Recommended: MB Minimum: MB
================================================================================
Slice Mount Point Size (MB)
0 / 61801
1 swap 8193
2 overlap 69994
3 0
4 0
5 0
6 0
7 0
================================================================================
Capacity: 69994 MB
Allocated: 69994 MB
Free: 0 MB
Immediately after the "remote server" and next screen, it says:
Warning: CHANGING DEFAULT BOOT DEVICE
Then it suggests going back and changing the default for EEPROM -- but -- does not allow me to go back!
At this point it appears to be installing. But it just sits at the timeline screen
"Solaris Initial Install
MBytes Installed: 0.00
MBytes Remaining: 3772.80
Installing: Open Card Framework
Forever.
Where am I going wrong?
Thanks for any clues!!!
- JudyWell, actually I don't have a console directly plugged in -- so I only have the secure console server
access, which seems to lock me into the single window mode where the installation stalls.
I left it going all weekend and it still stalls immediately when the installation is
supposed to begin (the "solaris initial install" screen with the percent completed bar at the bottom).
So I am unable to access the system (ctrl-c, ctrl-z do not seem to have any effect) other than
the installation guide interface. How do I get past this problem? Is it something to do with
when I turned off the firmware that keeps popping up the DHCP message (I'm not going to have
this machine's IP dynamically assigned)??? Is there something in the firmware that I need
to set???
Thanks again for help!

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. -
I'm trying to install Windows 7 on my MacBook with Boot Camp Assistant
I'm trying to use Boot Camp assistant to install Windows 7. I have a disk, I've done everything right, but for some reason, whenever I click Install on the final Boot Camp prompt, it only gets as far as the Windows is loading files... part after it reboots to the Windows hard drive. I've tried everything, but it still won't work. Im using a 13" MacBook Pro with Retina. It has the latest software version (OS X 10.9.1) and I have a USB with Windows Support Software. The disk is Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
I've been trying for the last two days, and I really need help!
Thanks.I solved my own problem. I just kept trying, and eventually it worked!

Blank Black Screen installing Windows XP Pro SP2 Retail with Boot Camp
Hi Support Forum -
I am using BootCamp Assistant (3.0.2) to install WindowsXP_SP2_ProRetail on my MacBook Pro 15inch
Mid2009 (10.6.4) plus all the latest updates.
I have no problems creating partitions ranging from 5GB to more than half my HDD of 500GB....but
nothing but one problem when I get to Step 3 of the BootCamp Installation & Setup Guide, page 7:
To install Windows on your Mac computer:
1 a... Open Boot Camp Assistant
b... Select 'Start Windows installer'
c... Click Continue
2..... Insert your Windows installation disc
3..... In Boot Camp Assistant, click Start Installation
Your computer starts up from the Windows installation disc
That's as far as I get! First a Gong sound then the gray screen appears and afterwards the screen turns BLACK. After a short while the optical drive starts up and is quite active with either searching
or scanning back and forth for about 5 minutes. Then all activity stops and finally the computer stops
2 minutes later. Interestingly the keyboard was never lit and none of the keys responded to my de-
pressions. I also noticed the aluminum case near the display pivot edge get quite warm probably due
to the black screen so I decided to press the power-off key.
I restarted the computer and held the option key depressed, selected the Macintosh HD icon and pro-
ceeded to the Logs (system.log & the windowserver.log) for any entries about the windows installer
and the optical drive operations....Nothing, nothing! Then I checked the BootCamp HD with Finder,
nothing, -> 0 items were loaded!
I feel at a loss what to do next??? I even ran Techtooldeluxe diagnostic utility from AppleCare, every-
thing AOK!
Now I had Windows installed successfully when I first had bought my MBP 15 last year. Then I decided
to play around with Parallel Desktop 5, didn't like it and tried to return to Windows and ever since that
time I was not able to install Windows XP. I decided to reinstall OSX to Factory Conditions, did the
7-pass erase for secure delete, installed OSX again without any problems. But Windows still won't in-
stall, get that Blank Black Screen, no cursors!
Perhaps something slipped in with soft- or firmware upgrades for the Graphic/Display 'Nvidia GeForce
9400M that won't let windows installer function properly?
Just for kicks I reinstalled Parallel Desktop 5 and Win/XP installed without any problems.
The Apple Experts in CA couldn't help me either. Now I had hoped there might be a solution to this
problem at this time?!
I like my MBP very much and I might convert to OSX and it's applications if I can't get an answer to my
problem. I still don't like to give up though and would like to pursue this problem with more diagnostic aids from Tech Support. I know there a lot of OPEN incidents on this particular problem!
If this really is a Windows Installer failure, why does it work with Parallel Desktop 5, there is no BOOT
CAMP ASSISTANT!!!!
Hope I can get a solution soon from some brilliant expert out there!
Thanks for your patience,
Paul370I know what are you talking about. It looks more like a video compatibility issue in Boot Camp like this one:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1454?viewlocale=en_US
I encountered something similar with a MacBook Pro and despite all searching, i couldn't find a solution. However i am not that expert you are searching for, just the average Mac user
*You may try another XP version, i was able to install a older XP home setup, and updated lately after installing :|*
I am interested myself in a solution from some brilliant expert out there! Keeping an eye on this thread. -
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to start a bootcamp installation of Windows 7 though an external monitor using HDMI. Is there anyway to have the installation screen show up on the external monitor? I get stuck at the beginning of the installation due to not being able to use my laptop's primary screen.
Thanks for the help!Kapil Choubisa wrote:
when I try complete step 2, it always says "The Installer dick could not be found".
Unless you have a 2010 Mini Server model, your Mini has a built-in Optical drive (Mac mini (Mid 2010) - Technical Specifications).
Can you read the Windows Installer media when booted on OSX? Your DVD media may be corrupt.
If your Optical Drive is functional AND the Windows DVD is readable in OSX Finder, then your installer should work. You will need a USB2 for BC drivers as well. -
PLEASE HELP: installing my Soundblaster Audigy LS-soundcard with the latest hardware(bundle)drive
Problem:
I have a Soundblaster Audigy LS Soundcard in one of my PCI slots (I already tried the other slot with the same result). I run Windows XP professional SP2.
When I install the hardwaredriver-bundle version: Sound Blaster Audigy LS .04.0055, I have no problem, but when I install version .0.4.077 (in this example: or I install version 055 or I install version 077), I have the following problem: (through Control Panel) in system properties/hardware/device manager, I find PCI Device listed in " other devices " with a black exclamationmark in a yellow circle, while the SB Audigy LS is listed in the group " sound, video and game controllers ". The soundcard works, which is great but why is the exclamationmark showing? I already tried a different PCI slot, IRQ assignement in BIOS, but is still shows. The strange thing is, if I install first version 055 and then version 077, the problem is gone. A new problem that occurs if I do so, is that the PC hangs when starting Windows (but I'm not sure if that has to do with the fact that I install version MediaSource 5 Player-Organizer 5.20.23 over version 5.0.38, just to keep the MediaSourceGo! Toolbar (because it's no longer part of the softwarebundle version 20.23 - which has been confirmed by the support of Creative), the same with version of CD Burner Plugin 5.0.44 over 5.0.3 because it's not really clear on the website, if you need the previous version or if it's a full "update"). Please URGENT (with detailed info on every explained problem/issue - so I can try to resolve it) help.
Thanx,
Oli4

LDOM 1.1 migration with boot disk on zfs volume
I have a big disk and set up a few zfs volumes for guest domains.
Have anybody successfully configure LDOM 1.1 to migrate guest domains
between two hosts when guest domais are on zfs volumes.
The two hosts shares the FC LUN through SAN.
Any suggestions?
cmCan you provide a working example of this? I fail to see any benefit of using files as bootdisks via NFS. It seems you will need a new bootdisk file (approx. 12g for our env.) for every ldom guest. First, how do you save storage space? Then, how do you manage additional storage devices for applications which require a small amount of additional disk space (say 50g)? If you use file allocation (mkfile on NFS allocated to an ldom) then you've gotten yourself into potentially disastrous performance issues (virtual guest storage -> virtual I/O management -> file -> NFS -> ZFS -> SAN Luns). The only solution to the problem as I see it is to use a clustered file system, which is not currently a viable option for the following reasons:
1. Veritas CVM does not support Branded Zones in an ldom = we can't use it
2. ZFS is not a cluster file system
So, this begs the question, what is the "Best Practice" for setting up ldom environments (with migration ability) from a storage perspective? What is the Sun recommendation on this? -
Installing Solaris 7 with laptop as the console..
hi,
i am trying to install Solaris 7 on E250 which didn't come
shipped with monitor/keyboard/mouse. i made use of a serial
port connector and could hyperterminal in..but it doesn't
recognize the keyboard..says it can't open an input device..
so..i am stuck with the installation..
any thoughts on this?
thanks,
vinny.We are seeing the same problem with trying to install Solaris 7 on a system with a Adaptec 2940 scsi card. We also know that the hardware is working because it was tested with Win98.
The system boots from the install disk but doesn't see the CD-ROM to load the operating system.
We found a patch 107858-01 but can't get it to copy to floppy after downloading on another older Solaris box.
The instructions say do a
<pre>
dd if=107858-01 of=/dev/rdiskette0 bs=360k
</pre>
but it always comes up with device busy.
We are Solaris newbies so if the answer to this problem is obvious please let us know and forgive the idiocy!
TIA
