Hi everybody,
I'm having big troubles in installing Solaris 8 on a Sun Blade 150.
Here are some system specs:
When I try to boot from Solaris 8 CD with boot cdrom or boot cdrom -s I receive the following messages:
This process creates a boot loop. I have to stop+A to end it.
I've also managed to install Solaris 8, from same CDs, on another Sun Blade 150, with similar hardware and software (the Openboot is a bit holder on this one: OBP 4.6.5). After a successful installation I moved the HDD to the other Sun Blade, the one who gives me problems. The result is the same: I get the same error that I receive when I try to boot from CD.
I would like to upgrade the memory in my Sun Blade 150 workstation. In reading through Sun's Blade 150 DIMM Installation Guide, it indicates that the memory must be "certified by Sun for the Sun Blade 150 system."

I'm not familiar with this particular machine and it's baffling me. For those that are familar with the workstation, allow me to paint a picture. If you were looking down on the machine (open) you would see the main board and then a riser board. On the left side of the riser board are jacks... (1 Reply)
We had to replace a hard drive in one of our Sun Blade 150s, but now it hangs during the Jumpstart. It will show 1 or 2 Timeout for ARP/RARP messages and then start the spinning numbers. It always stops at 2ae00 and just hangs there.
We have 1 combined jumpstart server and it is also our NIS+... (5 Replies)

bscv, bscbus, i2bsc - Blade support chip interface driver
DESCRIPTION
The bscv, bscbus and i2bsc drivers interface with the Blade support chip used on Sun Microsystem's Blade server products. These drivers
provide a conduit for passing control, environmental, cpu signature and event information between Solaris and the Blade support chip.
These drivers do not export public interfaces. Instead they make information available via picl, prtdiag, prtfru and related tools. In
addition, these drivers log Blade support chip environmental event information into system logs.
