This machine does not have CDROM/DVDROM. I try to boot using external usb. Issue command:
does not show any external cdrom. How to install OS? Is it can be install using usb pendrive?
Is the external DVD drive working? Did you check on a laptop or somewhere else? Maybe reset the OBP after connecting the external drive. Try another USB port on the system.
Also from the manual:

Use a dedicated AC adapter to supply power to the externally connected DVD drive.
If nothing works, you can setup an install/ai server and boot/install the system over network.
It's work. I need to power down ppar and power up it back. Then usb can be detected.

Yesterday, i format a disk. The size 600G physical. Format only took 8 hours. But verified already more than 6 hours. Not finish yet.

Certainly these servers have quite a few differences, not the least of which include CPU architecture and OEM. But, I'm wondering which would offer the greater reliability and availability. Thoughts? (3 Replies)
I recently got a Sun Sparc 10 Ultra with Solaris 10 installed on it. Now I'm trying to connect my SCSI Jaz drive to it. I moved my Adaptec AHA-2940U PCI SCSI card from my XP PC (where it was working OK) to the Sun and that's about as far as I got.
I did a probe-scsi-all and got nothing back,... (0 Replies)
