Hi again. I wanted to ask for the last time if anyone got some tips on debug'ing the installation of OmniOS. As stated of the emails before, I have tried -v and also -B immu-enable=true (as someone hinted me , http://blahg.josefsipek.net/?p=488 )
I have disabled pretty much anything in the bios and without any success. Including every setting related to C states and : Disabled Processor C3 Disabled Processor C6 Disabled Intel Turbo Boots. Disabled Enhanced SpeedStep Disabled Hyper Treading Disabled some cores. Disabled Intel Virtualization Disabled USB 2.0 Controller Disabled the on board SATA chipset. and many more. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_cstates_disabled_boot.JPG 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 I have tried to boot the installation from USB stick. with or without usb 2.0 controller. NO SUCESS. Also with SATA connected CDROM. NO SUCESS. Also with OmniOS installation from Hard Disk, connected on the on-board controller in AHCI mode. NO SUCCESS. OmniOS Installation from Hard Disk connected to a Supermicro AOC_USAS_L8i (which has the LSI SAS 1068E chipset). NO SUCCESS. I also installed OmniOS on some hard disk in another Intel based machine with a AHCI based SATA controller. Success. Moved the disk to this problematic machine, NO Success in boot. Freezes/Hangs at the same spot. So, as -v parameter dosn't give my NONE information when the machine freezes I'm really asking for the last time if there are any more parameters to debug/verbose this problem? As I run some other OmniOS related servers and I would really like to continue that on this machine. Would not prefer to run Solaris 11.3, as Solaris boots and install 100% fine. Also pretty much every *BSD distribution. I really would like to continue using this machine as a dedicated storage brick. Thank you all. Best regards, Svavar O p.s. The motherboard is Intel S5520SC installed into a SuperMicro SC933 Chassis which includes a BPN-SATA-933 BACKPLANE > On 1. apr. 2016, at 10:18, Svavar Örn Eysteinsson <sva...@pipar-tbwa.is> > wrote: > > I installed OmniOS on another machine, with Intel cpu and SATA controllers in > ACHI mode > from a USB Key. 100% success. > > Moved the hard drive to the problematic machine and the same story continues. > It will boot up, but soon as the CPU initializing is done and USB controller > is probed it will freeze and hang. > > As the screenshot shows. > > Pretty much the same if I boot the installation from USB/SATA CDROM... > > https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/IMG_0918.JPG > <https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/IMG_0918.JPG> > > > So it seems that I'm stuck with running Solaris 11.3... > > Svavar > > > >> On 31. mar. 2016, at 11:16, Michael Rasmussen <m...@miras.org >> <mailto:m...@miras.org>> wrote: >> >> Try to disable usb in bios before installing. >> >> On March 31, 2016 11:59:20 AM GMT+02:00, "Svavar Örn Eysteinsson" >> <sva...@pipar-tbwa.is <mailto:sva...@pipar-tbwa.is>> wrote: >> So, Solaris 11.3 boots up and installs fine but not OmniOS. >> I sure would like to use OmniOS on this machine, so I ask are there any >> other debuging >> options for me at the installation level ? >> >> Could I try to install OmniOS on a HDD/SSD on other machine with ACHI and >> boot it up on the problematic machine? >> Or is that just a no-go from the start? >> >> Thanks again people. >> >> Svavar >> Reykjavik - Iceland >> >> >> >> On 14. mar. 2016, at 21:28, Christian Kivalo <ml+omnios-disc...@valo.at >> <mailto:ml+omnios-disc...@valo.at>> wrote: >> >> >> >> On 2016-03-09 11:00, Svavar Örn Eysteinsson wrote: >> Hi Dan. >> Thanks for the reply. >> I disabled all the C-states and it's the same story. >> >> If I boot from the SATA CD-ROM installation it hangs on boot right after : >> cpu7: Intel(r) Xeon(r) CPU E5520 @ 2.27Ghz >> cpu6: Intel(r) Xeon(r) CPU E5520 @ 2.27Ghz >> cpu7: initialization complete - online >> cpu6: initialization complete - online >> See here : >> >> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_cstates_disabled_boot.JPG >> >> <https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_cstates_disabled_boot.JPG> >> If I boot from USB stick, with USB 2.0 enabled and or disabled the >> last message is always releated to usb stuff >> right after cpu6: initialization complete - online. >> So my BIOS configuration right now is : >> Intel QPI Frequency Select [Auto Max] >> Intel Turbo Boots Technology [Enabled] >> Enhanced Intel Speedstep Tech [Enabled] >> Processor C3 [Disabled] >> Processor C6 [Disabled] >> Intel Hyper-Threading Tech [Disabled] >> Core Multi-Processing [All] >> Execute Disable Bit >> [Disabled] >> Intel Virtualization Technology [Disasbled] >> Intel VT for Directed I/O [Disabled] >> and some more. >> My Bios Configuration can been seen here : >> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_bios1.JPG >> <https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_bios1.JPG> >> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_bios2.JPG >> <https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_bios2.JPG> >> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_bios3.JPG >> <https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_bios3.JPG> >> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_bios4.JPG >> <https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16134/omnios_intel_bios4.JPG> >> Maybe something for you there was a thread here some months ago... >> It starts here >> https://www.mail-archive.com/omnios-discuss%40lists.omniti.com/msg03194.html >> <https://www.mail-archive.com/omnios-discuss%40lists.omniti.com/msg03194.html> >> >> and some messages into the the thread X2APIC is mentioned >> >> https://www.mail-archive.com/omnios-discuss%40lists.omniti.com/msg03200.html >> <https://www.mail-archive.com/omnios-discuss%40lists.omniti.com/msg03200.html> >> >> >> https://www.mail-archive.com/omnios-discuss%40lists.omniti.com/msg03201.html >> <https://www.mail-archive.com/omnios-discuss%40lists.omniti.com/msg03201.html> >> >> and a link a blogpost by jeff sipek >> http://blahg.josefsipek.net/?p=488 <http://blahg.josefsipek.net/?p=488> >> >> >> Best regards, >> Svavar O >> On 8. mar. 2016, at 15:13, Dan McDonald <dan...@omniti.com >> <mailto:dan...@omniti.com>> wrote: >> On Mar 8, 2016, at 6:17 AM, Svavar Örn Eysteinsson <sva...@pipar-tbwa.is >> <mailto:sva...@pipar-tbwa.is>> wrote: >> Should I disable other CPU ?
