Hi there, I have a system here at home that I use as a server for storage and private development. At work I had the opportunity to try out the Solaris 10 x86 recently and I now I want it to use at home too. So I downloaded the latest OpenSolaris Developer Preview 2 and tried to install it. The Live-System comes up fine (as long as I disable UltraDMA in BIOS for the IDE DVD-Drive). But when I try to install it it doesn't recognize my LSI 53C1010 Controller nor the drives connected to it. As I do not have ATA drives attached to the system I cannot install anything.
According to this site http://blogs.sun.com/dp/entry/what_s_new_in_solaris12 the glm driver should support my 53C1010-66 controller (that is onboard of an FSC server board). But it doesn't for me. At work I was told from an admin that I would need the symhisl driver for such a controller but it isn't available on the Live-CD. So where do I get the driver and how do I add it for installation and the final system? P.S.: I've done a research of the devices using the SMBIOS tool and it reports my controller as an LSI 53C1000R, but I surely don't have RAID capabilities on that controller and it really is a 53C1010. Could that be a reason why the glm driver fails to work although according to the sun blog entry it should do that? Thanks in advance for any little help on this, Ancoron This message posted from opensolaris.org
