Installation of solaris 10 on x86 intel dual core or core 2 duo

hi all,
while i am installing solaris 10 on x86 machine which has 250 GB hard disk and 4 GB RAM with intel dual core processor
the first steps are going cool i.e. in the first cd it asks about partitions and it is accepting the partitions and also the partitions sizes what i am giving are:
/ -- 30 GB, /etc -- 6GB, /home -- 6GB, /usr -- 6GB, /export/home -- 100GB, /var -- 9GB, swap-- 10GB
and after the first CD got installed it asks for restart the system and when it
boots then i am getting the booting option and i selected it as solaris and one more thing to tell is it has already Windows XP pro+sp2
after selecting it boots with solaris and
after few seconds it restarts
please tell me if any body knows that is there any compatability issue with the processor that solaris is not going to support for intel core 2 duo or dual core processors
looking for the good reply

OK, so what are the options if we run the HCL check and come up with some incompatibilities??
I have Solaris 11/06 (from DVD media) installed on a brand new Dell Inspiron 530 (dual boot with XP). After the grub menu appears, and selecting 'Solaris', it takes about 3 minutes to get to a command line. I get a few errors at that time, such as:
file in / differ from the boot archive: /etc/path_to_inst
cannot find /etc/devices/mdi_ib_cache: no such file
I tried running 'svcadm clear system/boot-archive' and it seems to attempt to boot into a graphical CDE, but I just end up with an unintelligible multi-colored display, and need to power off.
I've checked the HCL and found some incompatibilities, but I don't know how to work-around these?
Running the Hardware compatibility test came up with the following:
No Solaris Driver
No Solaris Driver
Communication
Conexant
HSF 56k Data/Fax Modem
No Solaris Driver
No Solaris Driver
Network
Intel Corporation
*82562V-2 10/100 Network Connection*
No Solaris Driver
No Solaris Driver
Multimedia
Intel Corporation
HD Audio Controller
Can I simply disable the Modem and the HD audio in windows XP device manager, then reboot to Solaris, to get around these two (I tried this already)??
For the network card driver incompatibility, there is a Sun doc that says the workaround is to run: update_drv -a -i '"pci8086,1064"' iprb, but when I run this command at the initial Solaris command line, or try to edit any file for that matter, I get the error "read-only file system" Seems I have my hands tied in maintenance mode.
Thanks.

  • Solaris on Intel Dual Core Solo 2GHz Processor

    Hi
    Does anyone know if Solaris 10 X86 supports Intel Dual Core (solo) 2GHz processors?
    Thanks

    Don't know, and a quick cursory scan of the HCL didn't pop up anything in my face, but you can find out for yourself, and get some Sun swag, by going to http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/contest/hcl.jsp and downloading the app that will tell you if it will run or not.
    You can also help out the community by returning your results to Sun for reference by other people.
    All this is, of course, assuming you have the machine already...

  • DSC 8.6.1 wrong timestamps for logged data with Intel dual core

    Problem Description :
    Our LV/DCS 8.6.1 application uses shared variables to log data to Citadel. It is running on many similar computers at many companies just fine, but on one particular Intel Dual Core computer, the data in the Citadel db has strange shifting timestamps. Changing bios to startup using single cpu fixes the problem. Could possibly set only certain NI process(es) to single-cpu instead (but which?). The old DSCEngine.exe in LV/DSC 7 had to be run single-cpu... hadn't these kind of issues been fixed by LV 8.6.1 yet?? What about LV 2009, anybody know?? Or is it a problem in the OS or hardware, below the NI line??
    This seems similar to an old issue with time synch server problems for AMD processors (Knowledge Base Document ID 4BFBEIQA):
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/1EFFBED34FFE66C2862573D30073C329 
    Computer info:
    - Dell desktop
    - Win XP Pro sp3
    - 2 G RAM
    - 1.58 GHz Core 2 Duo
    - LV/DSC 8.6.1 (Pro dev)
    - DAQmx, standard instrument control device drivers, serial i/o
    (Nothing else installed; OS and LV/DSC were re-installed to try to fix the problem, no luck)
    Details: 
    A test logged data at 1 Hz, with these results: for 10-30 seconds or so, the timestamps were correct. Then, the timestamps were compressed/shifted, with multiple points each second. At perfectly regular 1-minute intervals, the timestamps would be correct again. This pattern repeats, and when the data is graphed, it looks like regular 1-sec interval points, then more dense points, then no points until the next minute (not ON the minute, e.g.12:35:00, but after a minute, e.g.12:35:24, 12:36:24, 12:37:24...). Occasionally (but rarely), restarting the PC would produce accurate timestamps for several minutes running, but then the pattern would reappear in the middle of logging, no changes made. 
    Test info: 
    - shared variable configured with logging enabled
    - data changing by much more than the deadband
    - new value written by Datasocket Write at a steady 1 Hz
    - historic data retrieved by Read Traces
    - Distributed System Manager shows correct and changing values continuously as they are written

    Meg K. B. , 
    It sounds like you are experiencing Time Stamp Counter (TSC) Drift as mentioned in the KB's for the AMD Multi-Core processors. However, according to this wikipedia article on TSC's, the Intel Core 2 Duo's "time-stamp counter increments at a constant rate.......Constant TSC behavior ensures that the duration of each clock tick is
    uniform and supports the use of the TSC as a wall clock timer even if
    the processor core changes frequency." This seems to suggest that it would be not be the case that you are seeing the issue mentioned in the KBs.
    Can you provide the exact modle of the Core 2 Duo processor that you are using?

    If both computers were configured identically, then they would both lose the same amount of battery life with respect to the same starting configuration - comparing apple to apples. I don't know how much the added RAM, etc. would reduce battery life, but it would be less for both models.
    Battery life is a tricky subject because most mfgr.s like to suggest as long a life as possible, but often do so under a set of conditions that are not common to most users. Apple is no different. Their computers do have good battery life, however. But not likely as long as what is in the ads for the typical user.

  • Why is it that the new macbook pro processor upgrade option only offers up to 2.8 Ghz with Intel Dual Core i7, when back in Sep 12 I bought a 2.9 Ghz Intel Dual Core i7 Macbook, is the new one tuned to go much faster anyway?

    Why is it that the new Macbook Pro processor upgrade option only offers up to 2.8 Ghz boosting to 3.3 Ghz with Intel Dual Core i7, when back in Sep 12 I bought a 2.9 Ghz boosting to 3.6 Ghz Intel Dual Core i7 Macbook, is the new one tuned somehow to go much faster anyway, or will the new one be slower in fact?  Or does the solid state drive compensate for the lack of increased processor capacity?

    The CPU's come from different Intel 'families'.  The older ones are 'Ivy Bridge' and the newer ones are 'Haswell'.  Numbers alone will not determine the efficiency of  CPU.

  • Intel Dual-Core CPU temperature Range?

    I am a bit puzzled by exactly what is the reasonable temperature range for an Intel Dual-Core CPU. I currently own a PPC MacMini which never goes above 43C. I also have a system with Athlon64 and the CPU doesn't go over 50C. The number of 80C just seems unreasonable.
    While I can understand some people think the high temperature is ok as long as the surface is not uncomfortable to touch, I can't help but wondering what effect it has to the CPU itself; or to the other components.
    Anyone knows where to find such information (operating temperature range) from Intel?

    You are familar with desktop processors and their associated temperatures. It is fairly common for notebooks CPUs to run anywhere between 50C - 80C. Intel specs the Core processors to 100C before the CPU starts throttling down to reduce the CPU temp.

  • My 2011 intel dual core duo iMac apparently has "Airport" ans apparently it is "on" although the icon (upper right) is gray. I'm not sure what "airport" is

    My 2011 intel dual core duo iMac apparently has "Airport" ans apparently it is "on" although the icon (upper right) is gray. When I click on the <gray> airport icon it says it's "on" and the option is to turn it off.
    I'm not sure what "airport" is, and I have no idea what a router is supposed to accomplish. I got a "smartphone" (not an iPhone, an android) and at a "Smartphone class" at the senior center I was told I need a router.

    OK, so, in installing a router could I attach the router to my Verizon DSL modem and have the iMac get it's internet from the router by wi-fi?
    This way I could place the router 1/2 way between the only two places in my home where wifi devices (wife's tablet, my iMac) are.
    Yes, exactly.
    For the router I suggest you consider one of the three Apple AirPort Base Stations, not only because it will be easier to get help with using them on this website, but they are generally regarded as the most reliable wireless routers. Technical support directly from Apple is free for the first 90 days.
    Slightly cheaper alternatives exist. I have tried other manufacturer's wireless routers, and I don't recommend them.

  • Installation of Solaris 10 pr x86 paltform

    Hello !
    Recently I get a version of Solaris 10 for x86 paltform.
    I've tried to install Solaris on my comp but I get the next
    error:
    elf32 read error
    Load error: Read of "paltform/i86pc/kernel/unix failed.
    First I thought that the problem is in SATA 160 Maxtor disk,
    becouse i had one problem with live distribution of Ubuntu Linux too.
    So I remove this harddisk and i've replaced it with the ATA Maxtor disk.
    I've got the same result.
    Has anyone any idea what could be wrong?
    Thank you!

    I was hooked by linux three years ago, and now I'm trying to find out what the really UNIX lookse like. And the other reason is that ESRI (GIS software) software works better on UNIX platform then Linux.

  • Intels Dual-Core technology causes Blue-Screen in LabVIEW 7.1 on Windows XP SP2

    Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
    last month we've bought a new Notebook with Intel's Dual-Core technology. After installation of LabVIEW 7.1 the system sometimes quit with a blue-screen. The former notebook didn't have this problem.
    Is there a fix-pack or service-pack that correct this problem?

    Does it blue-screen only when running LabVIEW or does it do that randomly, but it never happened before you installed LabVIEW?
    What is the exact message on the blue screen?
