Ultra 60 console port gives OK Illegal Instruction

I've got an Ultra 60 whose video no longer displays. The ethernet port had died a couple of weeks previously. I had been trying to swap in a couple of base 100 ethernet pci cards into, to see if they were recognized. I had installed one last week, but didn't have time to bring up the machine until this week. I discovered the video no longer displays but the monitor gets a signal as it refreshes during reboot. Tried a couple of monitors and 3 cables, no luck, everything works the same, just no video.
Found a thread about an Ultra 10 with a similiar problem and they discussed going through the console port (serial port A). I tried hooking up a null modem cable to my thinkpad, installed TeraTerm, but when I try to connect (9600, 8, N, 1), I do get an OK prompt. When I try to press any key though, I get "Illegal Instruction".
I've gone through the reference guide, service guide, and searched the forums, but I can't find anyone else that's had this problem. Would anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
thanks,
kevin

Power cycle the box and watch if it comes back to the ok prompt (or boots).
If you still get illegal instruction power off and remove any PCI cards and try again. could be a device corrupting the NVRAM.
Also a setenv defaults (from ok prompt) might clear a corrupted NVRAM. this however will clearout any custom boot settings.
If you can try to do a
ok> printenv
and capture the settings first.

Solaris 10 Net Install - Illegal Instruction

Hi Colleagues,
I 've been wrestling with this for awhile and can't seem to correct the problem. Searching the forum and the Web has also not returned any solutions.
Problem: I'm trying to install Solaris 10 10/09 on a SunFire V100 (128MB Ram, 40GB and 160GB HDD, CD-rom) using the DVD image from Sun.
Here is the result the I receive:

You're going to need a lot more RAM in that tiny beastie:
[http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/specs.jsp|http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/specs.jsp]
Thankfully, there are four DIMM slots on the V100 systemboard and you can max it out at 2GB of PC133 memory.

Console port not working.

Hello!
I would like to know if there's some situation what a console port could be disabled, or something like that.
I'm trying to configure a Catalyst 2960 Series PoE-24 by the console port using the hyperterminal, but it's not working. I verified the cable and the COM port, and everything works with another switch (same model).
Does anyone knows what could possibly be happening?

My colleagues have focused on the usual issues that cause the console to not work - possible issues with the terminal emulator or more likely is mis match in the speed setting of the console. If you work through those possibilities and the console still does not work then I have another possibility to suggest. Perhaps someone configure the command no exec under line con 0. This would cause the console to not work. It would display messages during bootup but would not accept any commands.
Does the switch seem to boot up normally? Was it configured with an IP address that you could potentially telnet to? This would give you a way to investigate the configuration.
If my suggestion is correct and the issue is that no exec was configured then you should be able to use password recovery to bypass the existing config and this could restore normal operation for the switch.

CRS-1 console port problem

Hi expert ,
I has CRS-1/8 with two RP , my problem is when i connect my console port to RP0 is work fine (( and i reload the rp1 )) but when i connect the same console cable to RP1 i see nothing , (just black screen ) ...can you please give me any suggestion ?

Hi ,
tomorrow
1- i will take the flash from this RP1
2- insert it to other RP ( I have one ) and try to fix this bug
3- then return the flash to its place our RP1 and then we will see show platform from RP0

Unfindable Illegal Instruction

Hello everyone,
I'm back with another error I can't seem to solve by myself, even with help from my friends. I had a few free days so I tried to fix the cairo problems I faced earlier when trying to incorporate it into DWM. I decided to start from scratch, which went relatively easy this time. However, it seems like I either missed something or did something wrong, because upon execution I get a segfault when I compile normally or an illegal instruction when I compile with -g.
The thing is, if I create a diff between my cairo code as it is now and as it was a few weeks ago, I don't see anything different that can cause this. Further more, if I checkout the older code and run that, it works. I have pinpointed the issue to be the creation of the cairo xlib surface on line 22 in drw.c, but I have also verified (via printf) that this function is run through perfectly fine before crashing. Actually, it gets through the whole setup() function (starting on line 1608 in dwm.c) and even draws the bar at least once before bailing out on me. Also, after a fresh boot it usually works fine but a second attempt triggers the illegal instruction.
The code base I started out from (which is in my master branch on github, see below) works fine, but again a diff between these two code bases does not show anything strange. I tried to compile cairo with symbol lookup enabled (because gdb only shows ???, as does valgrind), but I need a package I can not find and trying to build cairo with tracing crashes during compiling.
I'm completely baffled by this and I have no clue how to continue. I know I could just pick up the old code, but then I won't learn anything
The cairo code can be found inside the cairo branch: https://github.com/Unia/dwm/tree/cairo
The "normal" code can be found inside the master branch: https://github.com/Unia/dwm
The diff files between my old and my new cairo code can be found here: https://gist.github.com/Unia/24e26092b416c0bb79de
The diff files between my master and cairo branch can be found here: https://gist.github.com/Unia/7033ffc4a47be5d0cdda
Thanks in advance for any help!

I compile my cairo dwm with -g, start Xephyr like this:
Xephyr -ac -br -noreset -screen 800x600 :1 &
Then I start dwm like so:
DISPLAY=:1.0 gdb ./dwm
And I let gdb do it's thing by typing "run". When I get the segfault, I type "bt" and get the following output:
Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
0x000000000040ab50 in ?? ()

Terminal Adapter (Telnet) to Console Port Server?

Has anyone been able to connect to a device on a console port server?
Problem: the telnet session needs a crlf to be sent upon initial connect in order to trigger the device to send its login prompt. CPO cannot see the prompt and therefore times-out waiting for it to arrive
Thanks
Mike

We've found quite a few flavours of behaviour in ConsolePort servers. Some require crlf, others don't, while some require a password before it gives you access to the requested device. The CNOAS team has just produced a console port server workflow that presents a real time web page showing activity across ports, auto-recognition of devices etc., and allows user-written CPO provisioners and configurators to be launched to service the device. Please drop me an email for more info

WindowServer crashed during login - Illegal Instruction

Since I upgraded to Leopard I am only able to login in safe mode. When running in 'normal' mode, my Mac just starts to draw the desktop, the menu bar and the dock and then, suddenly, shows a blue screen for a couple of seconds and returns me to the login screen. In the console log (below) I found the following entry, which indicates that the WindowServer crashed, which explains the behavior, but not the cause of the problem.
Any ideas anyone?
P.S. I don't have DivX installed, so the fix to a similar problem posted here earlier doesn't work for / apply to me.

Front end and console ports are down for switch WS-C3750X-48PF-S

We have a switch WS-C3750X-48PF-S in the stack and front end and console ports stopped working and are down.
I have tried to replug power cable but this didn't help, please let me know if I could replug stack power for this switch without outage of other switches in the stack, since switches are connected into the ring
Please let me know what might be the possible root cause
#sh switch stack-ports
  Switch # Port 1 Port 2
    2 Down Ok
    3 Ok Ok
    4 Ok Down

Hello,
There is a problem with the stacking connection between switch 4 and 2. Can you try replacing the stacking cable between these switches?

NTVDM CPU encountered an illegal instruction

I have a jsp page that displays a graph using an applet and recently updated the page to use dynamic versioning for the JVM. A couple of weeks ago (late Jan 2005) the dynamic versioning was working fine, downloading and installing the latest version of Java as required (it was then 1.4.2_06 and at the time of this post, still is).
However now (early Feb 2005), I am finding that after downloading the Java plugin and beginning the install, I am getting the error below:
16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem
The NTVDM CPU encountered an illegal instruction.
C5:0555 IP:0288 OP:63 6f 6e 74 65 Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.
Has anyone else experienced this problem with v1.4.2_06 (I have seen on this forum someone had problems with v1.4.2_05 but problem went away when v1.4.2_06 was released a while back)?
I have tested on a few PCs in my office, all running Windows XP sp2 and IE 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2, same result.
cheers

I have the same problem with XP sp2. Did you find a fix?

Is It possible connect two router**from console port to console port

Hi,
I need this for doing reverse telnet.
Thanks very much

No
you can connect router 1's aux port to router 2's console port.
line aux 0
password blablabla
login
modem InOut
transport input all
find the aux port's line number which depends on the router model then telnet to a live ip on router 1 on that port.
Worc_3640#sh line
Tty Typ Tx/Rx A Modem Roty AccO AccI Uses Noise Overruns Int
0 CTY - - - - - 0 0 0/0 -
129 AUX 9600/9600 - inout - - - 0 0 0/0 -
* 130 VTY - - - - - 75 0 0/0 -
so say 10.1.1.100 2129 if 10.1.1.100 is on that box.
should get you going..

OOB management with console port

I would like to do the setup according to the doc - http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk801/tk36/technologies_tech_note09186a00800941c9.shtml
The only disadvantage I see is from the following excerpt from the article -
"Warning: Unprotected modems should not be connected to the console port. The console ports do not log users off when the carrier detect is lost, which can leave a security hole. To avoid this, use a secure modem, or connect via the AUX port. For more information on the advantages and disadvantages of connecting a modem to the Console port, refer to the Modem-Router Connection Guide."
I know I could set an exec-timeout of 1 minute but that would still leave a small window of time for security breaches if the line drops.
Could someone tell me a particular modem that has a password built into it to overcome this problem? What is the best security practice in this case?
I have setup modems before on the aux port, but you cannot access the router after reload if it boots into ROMMON mode for some reason.
Thanks,
RJ

Hi,
As a workaround you can try using an old junk PC with 2 serial ports, install Linux on that PC, connect via terminal session using the modem attached to serial COM1 (modem in autoanswer mode just like you're doing now), login with username/password on the Linux machine and then use a terminal emulation software like Minicom to open serial port COM2 to get the IOS prompt from the router.
Maybe this option is too much hassle for your application, but it won´t cost you a dime and is not really that difficult.
Regards.

then open it in some hex editor, go to byte 11acc and change 0f 95 c2 to 90 90 90. Should be enough. The modified binary doesn't crash on my AMD box, but make a backup just in case

"illegal instruction" during install of xapian-ruby-bindings (AUR)

In the installation process of xapian-ruby-bindings from aur the command
/usr/bin/ruby -I.libs -I. ${dir}$tst
is run from within a shell script. On my system, it causes an "illegal instruction" error, thus the installation fails.
I read in another thread* that this is somehow related to programs being compiled "for SSE2 or something similar". I do not know anything about that, anyway below is my /proc/cpuinfo

By the way, I also get an "illegal instrucion" error when calling (not installing) the mu** program (installed from AUR). This may or may not be related.

If you think so . . . I did not provide the output deliberately, because it really does not contain anything interesting besides "illegal instruction". Anyway, here are the last lines of the xapian-ruby-bindings build:

error: Build failed
"Ungültiger Maschinenbefehl" is german for "illegal instruction". (This one never gets translated, no matter what I do with LC_ALL etc.. I hope you do not mind the other german words—I can run the build again with english language settings if anything is not self-explanatory.)
mu is shorter:
$ mu find bla
Ungültiger Maschinenbefehl
EDIT: Replaced german output by its english equivalent, except for mu's error message, which is german regardless of LC_ALL.

After uninstalling/installing itunes I get this window 16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction CS:05aa IP:0480 OP: 6300 72006f Choose close to terminate. Neither ignore or close works

After uninstalling/installing itunes ( there was a problem with an upgrade) the following window appears on my account page
16 MS-DOS Subsystem
The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction CS:05aa IP: 0480 OP:6300 72006f Choose close to terminate application. Neither close or ignore works. I don't know where to turn for help I'm using Windows 7. Thx

Hi there,
I am also experiencing this problem, but with 1.4.2_06. Last week (late Jan 2005) the dynamic versioning was working fine, downloading and installing the latest version of Java as required.
However now (early Feb 2005), I am finding that after downloading the latest version of Java and beginning the install, I am getting this error.
I was hoping that you may have heard of a cause or solution for this problem?
Many thanks
