Hi,
I updated to 109 from the dev repository, but booting hangs. A verbose boot suggests it is having problems with a PCI express card (a no-name si3132 SATA 2 controller) that is working (it is being booted from) and worked in build 106.
The last few lines of a verbose boot are:
[...]
pseudo-device: acpippm0
acpippm0 is /pseudo/acpi...@0
pseudo-device: ppm0
ppm0 is /pseudo/p...@0
npe0 at root: space 0 offset 0
npe0 is /p...@0,0
PCI Express-device: pci8086,3...@3, pcie_pci1
pcie_pci1 is /p...@0,0/pci8086,3...@3
Does anyone have any suggestions on getting 109 going?

You could try booting with the original be, mount the 109 one
set snooping=1 in the /etc/system file and then reboot the
machine in the be 109 and then see if the deadman fires to
get a core dump.

Interesting idea - I'm familiar with the deadman timer already, but didn't have it set in the 109 BE.

Also a read of:

http://cn.opensolaris.org/files/System_hangs_debugging-ext-v1.1.pdf

may or may not help.

That looks a pretty useful doc. I'll have a bash at that tomorrow and let you know.

Cheers,

Chris
