Problems in Solaris 10 installation

Hi,
I m installing Solaris 10 on my laptop. But I am getting error " /pci@0, 0/pci103c, 30bb@1d, 7(ehci0): ehci_init_ctrl unable to take control from BIOS. EHCI system disabled". In installation guide, it is problem with motherboard (6204987).
Can you suggest any work around like changing BIOS setting or any other.
Regards
Aditya

[Solaris 10] Installation problem on nForce4 Ultra - SATA II - raid 0

hi,
Like I was read on HW web page, Solaris 10 should work fine with 'nForce4' (without 'Ultra'),
but on mine mainboard (nForce4 Ultra) instalator was unable to found my array.
I have ASUS A8N-E (nForce4 Ultra) with 2x 250GB Seagate on SATA II RAID 0.
Is it posible to install this OS on 'nForce4 Ultra' or maybe I am doing sth wrong ?

Hi, I have the similiar problems on Solaris 10 installation.

I had similar problems several months ago. I suspect this happens when host pc does not have floppy drive(or bios somehow misreports it) as it was in my case. Solaris 8 seems to work fine in the same environment, so I keep using it for now. Possible workaround might be to use DCA from Solaris 8: Installation of Sol9 started just fine after I entered Sol8 DCA and asked it to boot from Sol9 CD.
Hope this problem will be fixed in subsequent Sol9 releases.

Solaris 8 installation problem on an Intel base PC

I'm quite new with Solaris. I got stuck in Solaris 8 installation just at almost the very beginning. After booting up the system from floppy and conituing pressing F2 and selecting booting from CD, I got an error message like:
cannot mount on pci@0; 0/pci-ide@7; 1/ide01/sd@0; 0:a
panic[cpu0]thread=FEC17440 vfs:mountroot
then, the system reboots itself again and again every time it reaches this point. I guess it's a problem with my CD-ROM. But the problem persists even if I change CD-ROM or move CD-ROM from secondary master to primary slave, etc. I also tried to change harddisk, but did no good to the problem. Is there any experienced users who could provide me with some solutions?
I'm using a system with: Pentium 133, 32 MB Ram, 4GB HDD, 3C905TX, ATI Rage II PCI, Matshita CR-587 CD-ROM, Serial mouse and so on. I also tried another system with: P III 450, Asus P3BF, 192MB Ram, Pioneer DVD-ROM, same HDD, and so on. The problem was still there with the latter system. However, I successfully installed Solaris 7 with the latter system before. Why can't it work with Solaris 8?
Thanks a lot for the help.

I've been having the exact same problems on a PowerEdge 500SC. I have managed to get Solaris up and running on the machine, however. I booted the DCA from the floppy disk and installed from the CD-ROM. When the DCA is ready to scan for devices I use the "Specific Scan" option to tell it to look for specific devices. I tell it to scan for all devices in the listing and in doing so the DCA finds ISA-based IDE controllers. After it provides a listing of the devices it found I use the "Device Tasks" option and the "View/Edit Devices" menu item then delete the Bus Mastering IDE controller device. Once the screen comes up to ask for a boot device, the drives will show up as on the ISA controllers.
I have to go through this process every time I boot the machine but I am able to make the system run at least.
I haven't figured out the ACPI problem, yet.

Doug

Installation problem on Solaris

I am trying to install sun one 7.0 on Solaris 8. The install is failing with this error:
ERROR - library load failed with following error: Can't load library: /opt/SUNWappserver7/lib/libinstallCore.so
INFO - End core server uninstallation
anyone know what causes this??
cheers

Looks like Solaris package installation failed and installer reverted to uninstallation sequence. For low level pkgadd log please check /var/sadm/install/logs/Sun_ONE_Application_Server_install.B<timestamp> file (timestamp is date and time of your installation attempt in mmddHHMM format).
Look for any errors in this file. Most likely thing that could have happened is that the installation of Java Help (SUNWjhrt) package failed because you didn't have existing package based J2SE installation on the system. If that's the case, workaround is to either preinstall package based J2SE installation or to selected option to install bundled J2SE that comes with application server.

Solaris 8 installation problem on Dell PowerEdge 500SC

Hi,
I am having TWO PROBLEMS installing Solaris 8 on Dell PowerEdge 500SC.
This hardware spec is:
Pentium-III at 1GHz
256MB 133MHz ECC SDRAM
20GB 7200RPM ATA100 EIDE hard drive (on integrated ATA-100 controller)
48X EIDE CD-ROM drive (on integrated ATA-100 controller)
Motherboard: unknown
more details: http://www.dell.com/us/en/esg/topics/esg_pedge_sc_towermain_servers_3_pedge_500sc.htm
FIRST PROBLEM is the following message was shown at the hardware probe.
WARNING: ACPI Tables not in Reclaim Memory
Warning: Resource Conflict - both devices are added
NON-ACPI device: PNP0C01
Port: C00-C01, C06-C08, C14, C50-C52, C6C-C6F,
CD6-CD7
F50-F57
ACPI device: PNP0C01
Port 814-85B, 580-58F, C00-CD7, F50-F58
At this time, I was using "Solaris 8 (Intel Platform Edition) 10/01" released version.
I am not sure what this means, but it was RESOLVED with using newer "x86 DCA boot diskette (Patch-ID# 110930-05)".
But, the SECOND REAL PROBLEM is another one. It just happens booting the kernel after the hardware probe. I get the following messages about 2 minutes later, after beginning to load kernel.
WARNING:/pci@0,0/pci-ide@1/ata@1 (ata1): timeout: abort request, target=0 lun=0
WARNING:/pci@0,0/pci-ide@1/ata@1 (ata1): timeout: about device, target=0 lun=0
WARNING:/pci@0,0/pci-ide@1/ata@1 (ata1): timeout: reset target, target=0 lun=0
WARNING:/pci@0,0/pci-ide@1/ata@1 (ata1): timeout: reset bus, target=0 lun=0
After another 1 or 2 minutes I get more error and the system reboots.
Please give me any suggestion or advice!
Thanks.

Not able to add driver update during Solaris 10 installation on IBM x3550

I am facing a problem with installation of Solaris 10 on IBM x3550.
My question is not specific to IBM server.
I am trying to add SAS driver during Solaris 10 installation. I selected option "Apply device driver update" (option # 4). It is asking to insert driver disk. But only showing floppy (f) and cdrom (c).
IBM server 3550 doesnt have floppy drive and I have the driver image only in a USB stick. Unfortunately, Solaris 10 installation is not showing usb device during driver installation.
Is there any way we can add usb device to the driver update disk list??
Thanks in advance.

Does no one have an idea?

Solaris 8 installation in Dell 8100 met "Resource Confilict"

Hello There,
During I installated Solaris 8 in Dell Dimension 8100, I received the warning message:
"Resource Conflict: both devices are added.
NON-ACPI device:PNP0c01
Port 800-8DF, C00-C7F; Memory FFB00000-FFFFFFFF
ACPI device:PNP0C01
Memory: 9FC00-9FFFF, 3f87000-7F86FFF, FFFB0000-FFBFFFFF, FFC00000-FFFFFFFF."
How can I recovery this "CONFLICT".
Thanks very much !!!
Jack

AFAIK, this is a warning and can be ignored. But on dell
systems there a lot of other problems that can prevent
a successful solaris 8 installation (dell keyboard problems,
problems with a panic when the system include a 3com
3c905c NIC, ACPI problems, ...).

Does it crash/reboot when you continue?
Try to boot from the "Software 1 of 2" CDROM and at the
"1 interactive or 2 custom jumpstart" prompt type "b kadb -v"
instead of "1" or "2". In case it crashes while booting the
solaris kernel from cdrom, this should give some usable
error message...

Problem with solaris install/boot

I recently had to use solaris at work and liked it. So thought of getting it on intel box at home to learn it. I have never worked on a unix based OS before. When I installed the OS first time, the desktop would not start up, this was because of network setup. Reinstalled worked. After a week due to some problem i had to reinstall OS, installation went fine and but when i reboot i get this errror.
cannot find mis/krtld
boot error loading interpreter(misc/krtld)
elf32 read error
load error read of "platform/i86pc/kernel/unix failed.
boot path /pci@0,0/pci-ide@1f,1/ide0/cmdk@0,0:a
i have been trying to reinstall with many option like formatting with windows fdisk, linux installer everything as I saw somehwre that disk needs low level format.
I have googled but could not find any reason.
When I try to format disk using windows this is the information gatherd
Partition1 (solarisboot) 12 MB
partition2 unknown 152610
Hardware
pentium4 2.4 GHZ
1Gb DDR memor
Intel Original mother board.
140 Gb hard disk
Installation
install type 3 (tried all options)
entire disk for boot and solaris
accepted almost all parameters.
downloaded again , burned a DVD still same.
Any help will be highly apreciated, as I have been trying out everything I could find, also I really want to learn to use solaris

Weird; it wouldn't be so hard installing/running Solaris 10 on your hardware.
If you haven't tried Solaris 11 (Solaris Express) yet, I would suggest you to download the latest Solaris Express bits from http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/solaris-express/get.jsp.
Hope the following hints are useful, for a smooth installation:
Choose:
* Solaris Interactive installation in the initial screen.
* Networked in Network Connectivity screen
* Use DHCP
* No to IPv6 & Kerberos, if running Solaris 10 is the only priority
* None to Name Service (assuming the machine is not in corporate network)
* CD/DVD to "Specify Media"
* Default Install to "Select type of install"
* No to "Do you need to override the system's default NFS version 4 domain name?"
Note:
Once the installation from CD1 is complete, system boots up from the hard disk; and it may appear that it is not going to ask for CD2. Just be patient, and wait for it to ask you about CD2.

I don't think the test-scsi command is viable for that platform.
The FC disks are "viewed" by the system as external to the SCSI controller, almost as if they were in a multi-pack.
They are FC drives addressed by the chipset as SCSI disks.
Try:
<pre>probe-scsi-all</pre>
Edit:
Which release of Solaris 10 are you trying to install?
Older releases that might be fine for V480's won't work on V490's.

Solaris 10 Installation CDs

Hi,
I have downloaded solaris 10 installation CDs from site, verified them with checksums and burnt then into 700MB CDs. When I put the first one into CD-Rom and issue "boot cdrom" it prompt smthing like:
there is no executable file ...
What is the problem?

... In MS Windows ...
I double-click an ISO file.
It launches whatever program might be installed on my computer
that is associated with burning-to-disk (Nero, Roxio, Isobuster, whatever).
I pick a speed that I might want this time, such as 8x, and simply proceed.
It just works.
The program figures it all out for me.
That's how I've burned ISO files from all sorts of sources for the last eight years.
I double-click, and it just works.
Are you sure you downloaded the images for CD's
and not the five pieces of DVD that need to be joined before burning ?
