Hi Adrian, After an initial glance at the Debian S7-2 panic message, I will try resetting my LDOM settings to factory default via Solaris. Then try to boot Debian again. Wondering if something about my LDOM configuration is causing a problem? FYI, Solaris has no problem with it.
If Debian still panics after the LDOM reset then I will try the non-smp kernel as suggested. Will reply and let you know the result. PS - Can’t do this today, have other plans, but will do so tomorrow.
