Problem installing solaris 10 10/08 (x86) in multi-boot configuration

I'm trying to build a an x86_64 that can boot solaris10, Centos 5.3 and Ubuntu 8.10. (below is the linux fdisk data)
I have successfully installed the Ubuntu (partition 3& 6) and Centos ( parititions 2 &5 ).
Every time I've tried to install solaris, I get "initial fdisk information on disk c0d0 was invalid" and
it wants to reformat the disk with 100% solaris. I've tried
- setting /dev/sda1 as type BE with the Centos fdisk
- setting /dev/sda1 as type BF with the Centos fdisk
- setting /dev/sda1 as type 0 ( empty) with the Centos fdisk
- setting /dev/sda1 as type 0c ( FAT32) and formatting the the partition as FAT32.
I get the same response from solaris each time. I'm new to solaris ( my last sunos exposure was 4.1.1),
and can't figure out what the problem is and don't want to rebuild the whole system.
Any suggestions?

Just encountered this same problem with an X64 build using a flash archive of Solaris 10/09 and using XVM 2.5.0.1186 :

Solaris 10 x86 5/08 : Boot from DVD gives 'grub ' and no menu

Hi All,
I just spent a good deal of time downloading the Solaris 10 5/08 x86 DVD images. When I try to boot from disc 'A', I merely get a 'grub>' prompt.
From all I can tell due to searching, this is not right.
Any advice? :(

Solaris x86: How to boot from Veritas mirror disk?

Hello team,
We are using trailware Veritas Storage Foundation (VxVM) on Solaris 10 x86 system and need help in booting from alternative boot disk(Mirror disk).
Steps did :
1. Mirrored the root disk group using veritas volume manager command *"vxrootmir"*
2. Updated the bootpath with mirror disk path in /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc
Updated the EEPROM information:
# bootadm update-archive -R /a
3. Edited the grub configuration file, /boot/grub/menu.lst
Created the following entry similar to primary disk entry to allow the root disk mirror to be booted
title Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 s10x_u10wos_17b X86 <VxVM: Alternate Boot Disk>
findroot (rootfs0,0,a)
kernel /platform/i86pc/multiboot
module /platform/i86pc/boot_archive
4. reboot -- -r
At the time of boot, selected the newly added entry from the grub list and got the following error,
*"Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected device and press a key".*
I am unable to move further from here, is this because of the veritas trial version we are using ?
Please help in resolving this issue and also explain the step by step process of booting from alternative boot disk on a x86 machine.
Let me know if you find anything inappropriate. Looking forward for your replies.
Thanks in advance.

Hi--
I have not seen this message before but a quick google search says that is pretty common and is related to the system
trying to boot from a different device (not the one you intended). Can you check your BIOS settings and possibly remove
devices from the boot order setting... Otherwise, I would suggest running installgrub on the disk that you are trying to boot
from.
I'm curious why you are trying Veritas. Is there a Veritas feature that you need? You might consider trying ZFS if you haven't
already. Its very simple to set up and use.
Thanks, Cindy

Solaris 10 10/08 x86 DVD will not boot, workaround inc.

hi,
Downloaded the Solaris 10 10/08 x86 DVD. It will not boot up at all with the 2 Gigabyte boards I have tryed it with. GA-G33-DS3R and GA-N650SLI-DS4L I downloaded the ISO twice and checked the checksum. Burnt the DVD 4 times! The DVD works fine with my Eee PC 900 over usb. Booting the 2 gigabyte board over usb works a bit better, they get to GRUB but they still dont work correctly.
I am using IDE DVD drives with the 2 gigabyte boards. I have never had a problem like his before with my hardware. Been experimenting with lots of diffrent Linux distro's recently and they all booted fine from DVD's I have burnt from downloaded ISO's.
I have tryed the CD install disks, CD1 boots up and start the install OK, but would not finish corrctly for me. Some other problem am not going into.....
The DVD workaround I am using.
Boot up the system with am old Solaris DVD.
At the very first menu, press an arrow key to stop the 6 second timer.
Remove the old Solaris DVD and replace it with the new Solaris 10 10/08 DVD.
Wait a few seconds and select Solaris from the menu.
The install program will now continue with the new DVD. If you dont have am old solaris DVD, you could try downloading CD1 and booting that then swapping it out fot the new DVD. Not tryed this myself.

Installing Solaris 9 on an x86 platform with win98 and win2K

Hi,
There is a Pentium P4 (2.4 GHz) machine with a 40 GB hard disk...
This has 1 primary partition and the remaining is the extended dos partition. In effect there are the following logical drives - C, D, E and F. These are FAT32 partitions and have WIN98 and WIN2K (server) installed on them.
There is a free space of abt 8 GB remaining on which i am trying to install Solaris 9 (via CD). But am just not able to do so.
During the process, i get to the step saying that my disk is to be partitioned and that i could either choose the DEFAULT LAYOUT or manually partition the disk with the fdisk.
Default layout indicates that there would be 1 x86 partition (primary, boot) and the remaining would be a solaris partition - implying that all my other data would get formatted out!!!
When i try to use the fdisk to manually partition the disk, the free space mntd above does not show up!!!
But this is seen when i use the DOS fdisk - i.e. i could create a logical drive on the extended dos partition...
Can some one please help me install the Solaris in the free space i have ?? Thanks.

Hello!
There is one simple method also..
Instead of Installation disk of Solaris, insert the Software 1/2 Disk, and try to follow the actuall Suninstall method of installing Solaris. Here you will get the option that how to utilize the free space.
I myself have installed more 5 OS on a single Hard disk :) this way. Try this method

Solaris 10 10/08 x86 (Ultra 20 M2) install issues

Morning everyone,
After backing my workstation up, I performed a full update of a fully patched (OS and BIOS) 11/06 Solaris 10 Ultra 20 M2 machine (Opteron 1210). However, shortly after installing I get repeated start failures, and even rebooting off of the 10/08 DVD gives me the exact same error. The error, which occurs right after detection of
ng0 and ng1, states (my comments are in <>):
WARNING: /PCI@0,0/PCI108e,534d@5/disk@0,0 (sd0):
Error for command: read(10) Error Level: Retryable
Requested Block: <number always varies. i.e. 138462966) Error Block:<same as requested block>
Vendor: ATA Serial Number: <nothing>
Sense Key: Aborted Command
ASC: 0x0 (no additional sense info), ASCQ: 0x0, FRU 0x0
Now, after first installed I got this error, but several reboot attempts got me into the working system, and I rebooted several times again and didn't see the error. I performed my regular restore (/export/home, /opt, ect..) and updated the system from Update Manager. However from that point forward, the machine will not get past this error. Now even performing a full re-install of 10/08 lands me with the same exact error.
The md5 checksum of the iso image checks out, and I've written/verified the data on the DVD with two different burning programs. I've even written the information to two different brands of DVD-R will no luck. The slices are standard UFS, and it's a plain Sun Workstation with 4G of memory.
Suggestions as to what the error is referring to? I've Googled and searched this forum in vain to see any thing that might relate, but no luck.
Dave

An update for anyone who might run into a similar issue:
I narrowed down to an issue with the ata controller and 10/08 ( 05/08 works like a charm). In the release notes, the following entry appears:
"x86: ata Timeouts During Boot (6586621)
ata driver timeouts might occur during system boot on Intel multiprocessor systems. These timeouts occur when the root device is on a drive with the HBA controller bound to the legacy ata driver. These timeouts lead to a momentary hang, hard hang, or a panic during system boot with console messages similar to the following:"
So, even though this machine is running an AMD 1210 Opteron (perhaps the entry should read: ".. on x86 multiprocessor machines..." instead), I am affected by this bug.
I was able to successfully load u6 on the machine once, and once that happened 10/08 would fail with that ugly error message. However, by disabling the MP support in Solaris (in kbd mode so that Solaris only sees a single processor), it booted just fine.
Once I got into the working system (I assume I could have done it from a live CD like milax) I disabled the microcode support by following the instructions listed in Workaround 5 (mv/renaming the microcode entry). After multiple warm and cold restarts to test the functionality of the fix, the machine passed with flying colors.
Lastly, the other option, listed as Workaround 1, was to specify in the BIOS the use of AHCI mode. Unfortunately, the 1.52 BIOS does not offer this feature.

Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (x86) VM hangs

Hello,
I have downloaded Oracle VM Template for Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (x86) from Oracle Software Delivery Cloud
and created a VM out of it. When I start it the blue Oracle Solaris screen is displayed in the console and the VM hangs.
OVS version: 3.2.6
Hardware: Sun Server X3-2 (Formerly Sun Fire X4170 M3)
VM config:
Memory:4GB
CPU:4
Disk:40GB

Yes, but it did not help.
I did finally manage to boot Solaris 10 1/13 by changing "xvda" to "hda"
in the vm.cfg. That said, there's still a problem: the OS takes over 20 minutes
to boot.

Solaris 8 for intel x86

Hi,
i want to download the solaris 8 for x86. can any body guide me to find the download link because i can able to find the solairs 8 download link on sun website.

Since Solaris 8 is now an officially discontinued product,
you might only be able to get it if you buy used media sets
on an online auction site such as Ebay.
Could you describe your hardware?
I remember using Solaris 8 on an x86 system.
For what it did, it was good.
However there was a very limited set of hardware that would function.
If I remember correctly, your concern should be as to:
What is your motherboard chipset?
What is your disk controller chipset?
What is your video card?
What network adapter are you planning to use?
What sound card do you own?
I had it on an Intel 440LX P-II.
Only the integrated IDE connectors were recognized.
I had an 8mb ATI Rage PCI card that let me see what I was doing.
Only about two or three specific NICs worked, such as 3C905TX or a DC21140.
My original real Soundblaster 16 (ISA slot) was able to give me the beeps and chirps necessary.
If you're hoping for most anything made in the last couple of years, then forget it.
(... and forget about USB peripherals other than USB 1.x devices like keyboard/mouse)

Solaris 10 5/08 x86 - Pseudocolor visual not available in xdpyinfo

I am running Sol 10 5/08 x86 64-bit on a Dell Precision 690 wkstn with WinXP using VMware Workstation 6.0.4. I have a NVIDIA Quadro FX 3500 video card. I am not sure if this is really a VMware issue or one that can be solved using Solaris.
I need to run "Xnest -depth 8 -class Pseudocolor," but my video setup, using the Xorg server (Xsun not supported by VMware Tools), does not support Pseudocolor visuals. Here is my xdpyinfo:

Any help or advice anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks...

I installed the latest nvidia driver and ran nvidia-xconfig, which made a new xorg.conf file. Option "CIOverlay" is in the new file, which should enable Pseudocolor visuals. However, after rebooting with -- -r, Xorg won't start. Xerrors says:
No devices detected
Fatal server error:

XIO: fatal IO error 146 (Connection refused) on X server ":0.0"

So Xorg can't find my video devices. This page: http://us.download.nvidia.com/solaris/173.14.09/README/appendix-c.html does show that the Quadro FX 3500 is suppoted (thank heavens).

Only VMware devices are seen, and there is nothing in /dev/fbs except "text-0 -> ../../devices/pci@0,0/display@f:text-0"
There is a /dev/nvidia0 and it should be symlinked to /dev/fbs/nvidia0, but the link is broken. Can Solaris 10 use the installed Solaris NVIDIA drivers in a VMware workstation environment? The only way I can get Solaris to work is to use the vmware video driver, which does not support pseudocolor visuals.

Solaris 10 Boot Hangs on T1

Solaris 10 is hanging during boot from the OpenBoot firmware on my T1. Below is the output from doing an interactive boot from OpenBoot using the "boot -a" command. I use the default values for all options and the boot hangs after the root device is specified.
I'm rather new to Solaris so this problem has me stuck. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Fontconfig-2.4.2 package incompatibility w/Solaris 10 5/08 x86

FYI, I found that after installing this package via pkgadd from http://www.sunfreeware.com/indexintel10.html the startup of the window manager would hang indefinitely when attempting a desktop login.
A perusal of pkginfo also shows that there is already a fontconfig package bundled with the OS:
system SUNWfontconfig Fontconfig library
system SUNWfontconfig-docs Fontconfig library documentation
system SUNWfontconfig-root Fontconfig library configuration files
I installed the freeware package because another package I wanted to install (gd) was dependent on it.
Once I deinstalled the freeware package, the desktop login worked, so it looks like installation of the freeware package should be avoided.
To note, I'm running Solaris 10 5/08 x86 on an IBM ThinkPad T60, although I don't believe this issue is hardware specific.

FYI, I just noticed the same conflict on SPARC boxes too. A simple "pkgrm SMCfontc" removes the package and solves the problem.

Install Wls6.0 on Solaris 8.0 for x86

I have a pc with Solaris 8.0 for x86 installed .I also install jre1.3 on it.
When I try to install wls6.0 on it ,there comes an error message"can't find
libjava.so ".
I've found the file libjava.so at path "j2re1_3_0/lib/i386/" .
Why the installer didn't find the file ??

create a link (or copy the files) from your $JDK13/bin/i386 to the /usr/bea/jdk130/bin.

I followed your instructions and was able to install the server.
However, when I tried to start the server from under mydomain,
I got an error message saying java was not found in /usr/bea/jdk130/bin/i386/native_threads/java.
I did copy the i386 directory from the J2SDK SE 1.3.0 home to
under /usr/bea/jdk130/jre/lib per your earlier post. Can you tell
me what else I have to do? TIA,

You will need to install the 1.3 JDK on your Solairs x86
box, then invoke
the install script from the command line with the following
flag:
LAX_VM /usr/local/jdk/bin/java
where /usr/local/jdk/bin/java represents your installation
of JDK1.3.

Any further suggestion is appreciated.

Technically the x86 platform isn't supported but we
had
a similar need to use
it. Try copying the i386 directory that came with the
JDK1.3 you downloaded into
/usr/bea/jdk130/jre/lib (your path may be differentbut
you want to place i386
in the JDK1.3 that came with the WLS6.0). Also be aware
that WLS will ignore
your suggestion to use your JDK and will use it's own
(regardless of what you
specify in the startup file). You will not be ableto
use the Performance Pack
(you'll see the exception when you start the serverbut
it doesn't appear to be
fatal).

Is there a sleep/hibernate mode for Solaris 10-u8-ga-x86?

I finally have a version of Solaris 10 running on my HP DV 6500t laptop. Is there a way to set-up Solaris 10-u8-ga-x86 to sleep/hibernate when the lid is closed? Then wake up when the lid is opened?
I don't want to shutdown my laptop when I take it on the road, such as to the coffee shop.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
kaialii

I just noticed on build 134 of OpenSolaris that the Shutdown Icon now has an option to suspend.
