Operating Systems Solaris T5220 not able to boot from USB Post 303029255 by solaris_1977 on Wednesday 23rd of January 2019 05:38:35 PM

I downloaded 11.3 and recreated bootable USB
Code:
root@sparc1:/var/tmp# usbcopy sol-11_3-text-sparc.usb
Image type: dd-able Sparc
Found the following USB devices:
0:      /dev/rdsk/c10t0d0s2     15.2 GB General  UDisk            5.00
Enter the number of your choice: 0

WARNING: All data on your USB storage will be lost.
Are you sure you want to install to
General UDisk 5.00, 15200 MB at /dev/rdsk/c10t0d0s2 ?  (y/n) y
Copying and verifying image to USB device
Finished 991 MB in 255 seconds (3.8MB/s)
0 block(s) re-written due to verification failure
Completed copy to USB
root@sparc1:/var/tmp#

But I am not able to boot from this USB drive. It doesn't even try to search and then give up. as soon as I hit boot command, it fails instantly. So I am assuming, probably I am not giving proper/complete path ?
OBP 4.27 is minimum required OBP level for USB support and I have 4.33

usb_get_current_frame_number(9F)			   Kernel Functions for Drivers 			  usb_get_current_frame_number(9F)

NAME
usb_get_current_frame_number - Return current logical usb frame number SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/usb/usba.h> usb_frame_number_t usb_get_current_frame_number(dev_info_t *dip); INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI) PARAMETERS
dip Pointer to the device's dev_info structure. DESCRIPTION
The usb_get_current_frame_number() function retrieves the current logical USB frame number. Isochronous requests can be started on a particular numbered frame. An offset number of frames (typically between 4 and 10) can be added to the current logical frame number to specify the number of an upcoming frame to start an isochronous request. The USB specification requires that the frame frequency (the period between start-of-frame packets) is one millisecond. The Solaris oper- ating environment USB implementation uses a running counter of the number of milliseconds since boot as the current logical frame number. RETURN VALUES
On success, the usb_get_current_frame_number() function returns the current USB frame number. On failure it returns 0. The function fails if dip is NULL. CONTEXT
May be called from user, kernel or interrupt context. EXAMPLES
usb_pipe_handle_t handle; usb_frame_number_t offset = 10; usb_isoc_req_t *isoc_req; isoc_req = usb_alloc_isoc_req(...); ... ... isoc_req->isoc_frame_no = usb_get_current_frame_number(dip) + offset; isoc_req->isoc_attributes = USB_ATTRS_ISOC_START_FRAME; ... ... if (usb_pipe_isoc_xfer(handle, isoc_req, 0) != USB_SUCCESS) { ... } ATTRIBUTES
