Sol 10/Sparc disk not found

I am trying to install Solaris 10 on various Ultra II based systems (Ultra 60, AXi etc) which have been running FreeBSD.
Solaris 10 reports "No Disks Found"!
Solaris 9 can be installed, after which Sol10 can see them, however this is inconvenient for those people who don't have Solaris 9 disks :-}
More to the point, the algorithm for determining if a disk is present is obviously defective, (probe-scsi from obp has no problem finding them) and there should be an opportunity to TELL the system where the disks are if it can't find them.
I have tried both the ga and the 1106 release.

Usually there is a message during boot that indicates that there is a problem with disk label before the install gui is loaded.
You can use option 6 of install CD/DVD to boot to CLI and use the format command to label the disk.

IPod Classic 120GB cannot sync, "Required disk not found"

Somebody, please help! iPod Classic 120GB charcoal, current OS as of about a week ago (won't stay synced long enough for me to see what it is), iMac 24" 10.6.4, iTunes 10.0.1. Let me know if you need any more info and I'll try to provide it.
Everything was absolutely fine until I updated to the newest version of iTunes. Now, when I plug in my iPod, it says it's connecting then jumps straight to the "Okay to disconnect" screen. It never shows up in iTunes at all. After doing this repeatedly, I unplugged it then immediately plugged it in again before it had finished the progress bar on the "Okay to disconnect" screen, and it finally showed up in iTunes, but it gave me an error of "iPod was not properly disconnected" then "cannot sync - required disk not found" and disconnected itself again.
I tried resetting it (menu+center buttons) while it was plugged in, and this did nothing. iTunes still didn't recognize it at all.
About a week ago, I followed some instructions somewhere and toggled the "enable disk use" option (I usually keep it unchecked) then was able to restore it. The songs were added back in a bizarre order (not alphabetical, not chronological, songs within an album added out of order, jumping from artist to artist, etc.) and I had to sync it again for three random albums that it missed the first time, but once everything was in again it was fine. I haven't added any new songs or playlists to my iTunes library since then (just changed a few ratings and I like to keep track of play counts), but when I tried to sync it again this morning, I got exactly the same errors.
The only difference this time is that it alerted me that one song in my library (a song I happen to like very much) could not be synced. The song still shows up on my iPod, but will not play. It still appears and plays in iTunes on the computer.
The iPod works perfectly in day-to-day use and is a little over a year old. I take very good care of it (my previous iPod is four or five years old and still works fine) and it has never had any problems before this. It has almost 100GB worth of music (no other media, just music), which makes it pretty annoying to have to restore it more than absolutely necessary. What is going on here and is there some way to fix it that will last longer than a week?

Hi, yeah I'm experiencing the same issue as everyone else with a 120gb iPod classic using iTunes 10.1.1 (4). Started about the time of OSX 10.6.5 update and hasn't been resolved with the OSX 10.6.6 update.
iPod attempts to Sync but now quits without even appearing on the computer let alone iTunes.
I have ESET security but quitting the app doesn't help.
I also have an iPhone 3Gs and that's still syncing fine (thank heavens), via a different library.
I've since managed to wipe the iPod clean (back to factory settings) as forced to do so by following the instructions in another post to remove the iPod Photo Cache. I then moved my iTunes folder to another directory for safe keeping.
I set up a clean iTunes database thinking my old one might have been corrupted. To do this you open iTunes from scratch while holding down the option key and select "Create Library". iTunes then remembers the last library created whenever you open the app.
When I am able to see the iPod summary screen (a rare occurrence now) I see that "enable disk use" is checked ok - this has been noted as a problem in previous forums. So that's not the issue.
Actually the iPod doesn't even stay connected to my 2010 unibody MacBook Pro when the iPod is switched over to disc mode. It immediately goes into "OK to Disconnect".
So I now have a clean iPod, and clean iTunes - all empty and essentially useless!
Anybody out there with any ideas? Plllleeeeeeeese?

Hard disk Not found Error

My computer suddenly after working properly the day before, started displaying an error that says hard disk Not found. It is not booting up to windows aince the hard disk has been disconnected in some way. It is still under the hp manufacturers warranty till auguat of 2015, so would I be able to send it in for either a device replacement or a service order to correct the error. Also there is a small crack in the body near the charging port, but that is from a drop from eariler.

Satellite P200-1EE - Hard disk not found if I try to install XP

Hi and I have a problem.
I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite P200-1EE series laptop running (of all things) Vista and nothing but problems ever since so im trying to install XP professional and overwrite Vista.
But whenever I try to install it says "hard disk not found..... unable to access"
I've heard of problems like this before something like a "software block protocol"
Any suggestions?

Hi!
Why you dont search in the forum before you start a new topic?
I mean you will hundreds of threads about this issue here in the forum and you will find the solution of your problem in few minutes.
Well, the reason for this is because you need the SATA drivers before you can install Windows XP. As far as I know your notebook is equipped with an Intel chipset and so you need the Intel Storage Manager. You can integrate the drivers using an external FDD or nLite [www.nliteos.com]. Furthermore this document could be useful for you:

Time machine fails backing up with a "backup disk not found" error after upgrade to Lion 10.7.2

Time machine fails backing up with a "backup disk not found" error after upgrade to Lion 10.7.2. I've erased and reformatted the drive; reconnected Time Machine(it saw it) and began a new backup. The backup starts again but fails before completing with backup drive not found error. I used the 10.7.2 combo update. Any help on how to fix this problem would be appreciated.

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
After waiting since October for a fix, I have now upgraded the firmware on the Time Capsule and installed the new Airport Utility, released yesterday, and the situation is even worse.
Up until now, the Airport Utility had an option to disconnect all drives manually and the Time Capsule would then work until the next reboot – a temporary (?) work-around.
Now that option does not exist in the new-look Airport Utility. And the Airport Utility installation can’t be rolled back and the old utility won’t restore.
The sparesbundle is still not accessible. Anyone worked out a work-around in the new environment yet?
I have another Time Machine backup working fine to a trusty old Lacie Drive so erased the one on my Time Capsule to see if that works. I have renamed the Capsule and the Time Capsule Drive. But to build another full backup will take at least two days and I shall be away from tomorrow and am reluctant to leave the Capsule and computer up and running for a week. And I’ll bet the sparsbundle will still be nowhere to be found.
How can Apple screw up so badly when they are to become the richest company in the entire world and – soon – will have more cash in the bank than the entire United States? Can’t they afford someone who really can sort this out? Especially when a Firewire connected hard drive – my trusty and simple LaCie – works fine.
Words, almost, fail me.

"Disk not found" and "No boot device found"

Please share any knowledge that may help in overcoming this problem. Installing Solaris 7 on Dell Precision 620, 933 Mhz, PIII. At the point where all systems seem about ready to go in completing interactive install, it comes back with "Disk not Found". A friend tried to help with his limited knowldeg from having loaded Solaris software before, but was unable to ascertain the problem. set_ environment command was not recognized. If its any help the boot path read: /pci@o,o/pci_ide@1f,1/ide@1/sd@o,o : boot args kernel/unix_-r
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi ,
I have not faced this problem on solaris 7 however I did face a problem similar to this on Solaris 8. I made a small dos partition and made it active and then started the solaris 8 installation which then went through fine.
Hope that helps.

What does the error message say EXACTLY?

Required disk not found

I am setting up my nano and it says it is unable to syn it because "the required disk not found". Anyone have any clue what that means?

If you're using XP, the following document may be of some assistance:

(Even though you're not getting a -50, the message you're getting can sometimes be a symptom of the same basic problem.)

Mounting Sol 8 SPARC disk on Solaris 10 x86

I have been having a very difficult time mounting a Solaris 8 (SPARC) SCSI disk on a Solaris 10 x86 box. The disk is recognized (it shows up under format as c2t2d0). I cannot mount it at all.
The individual slices will mount under another Sol 8 machine. I can also boot the x86 machine with System Rescue CD, and it will mount the individual SunOS slices as UFS with the -o ro option.
I have look extensively on the web for a solution, with no luck so far. I am clearly missing something very basic. I'd appreciate any pointers.
Thanks!
Tom

UFS on Solaris is endian-specific. Solaris does not support mounting big-endian UFS (SPARC) on a little-endian host (x86). I don't know that anyone was trying to work on a converter.
The other problem you'll run into is that x86 drivers expect an MBR label on the disk with a VTOC inside a Solaris partition, while SPARC disks usually have only the VTOC label.
