I just got my console message:
Automated Installation failed
Please refer to /tmp/install_log file for details
opensolaris svc.startd[7]: application/auto-installer:default failed
fatally: transitioned to maintenance (see 'svcs -xv' for details)
In looking at the install_log I see the failures are all related to each
other and the bootblk:
0.) devfsadm fails to find the device namespace:
current task:get_rootdev_list
current task:setup_dev_namespace
devfsadm command output: devfsadm: could not find major number for
driver ipnet
mber for driver ipnet devfsadm command output: devfsadm: could not find
major nu--More--(65%)
1.) then the bootloader failed:
ict_installboot Command /usr/bin/env -i PATH=/usr/bin
/usr/sbin/installboot -F zfs /a/platform/sun4v/lib/fs/zfs/bootblk
/dev/rdsk/c7t0d0s0 failed with 256
installboot failed
ICT - Failed to install the bootloader
2.) the updating the archive fails
shell cmd (bootadm update-archive -R /a 2>&1) returned status 256
Updating boot archive fails. exit status=256 command=bootadm
update-archive -R /a 2>&1
Failure. Returning: ICT_UPDATE_ARCHIVE_FAILED
3.) Lastly the copy of the bootlst fails
current task:copy_sparc_bootlst
Unexpected error when copying the sparc bootlst file /rpool/boot/menu.lst
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./ict.py", line 1677, in copy_sparc_bootlst
shutil.copyfile(bootlst_src, bootlst_dst)
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/shutil.py", line 47, in copyfile
fsrc = open(src, 'rb')
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/a/platform/sun4v/bootlst'
Failure. Returning: ICT_COPY_SPARC_BOOTLST_FAILED
But it continues to get the rpool ready and no I have nothing in /a?
But I'm still booted off the ramdisk.
