Hi all. I am having real trouble booting up installation of the newest Omnios on my Intel/Supermicro Server. The specs are :
Intel S5520SC Motherboard 2x Intel Xeon E5520 @ 2.27Ghz Supermicro SC933 Chassis with Supermicro BPN-SATA-933 Backplane. Only one hard disk at the moment as I'm testing things out. The Grub bootup doesn't go any further after CPU initialization or USB controller initialization. I have tried the following things in the BIOS : 1. Disable the USB2 Controller and boot from CD Installation (with CD-ROM connected to ACHI on-board Sata controller, as the HD disk also) 2. Enable the USB2 Controller and boot from a USB2 Memory stick with Omnios Installation. 3. Disable the Intel Hyperthreading. 4. Disable the onboard 1394 controller Here are 4 different screenshots of the monitor where the installation boot just hangs. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_S5520SC_trouble1.JPG https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_S5520SC_trouble2.JPG https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_S5520SC_trouble3.JPG https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_S5520SC_trouble4.JPG My question is, does anyone know what would cause this hangup? Are there any other boot options I can try or other BIOS related settings ? Should I disable other CPU ? Should a enable C2, C3 state in BIOS or is that not relevant? Thanks in advance people.
