After next fresh Solaris installation I've tried to reproduce procedure suggested by Dmitry Vayntrub, view:-
http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/data/systems/details/1742.html Note that procedure suggested for Intel SE7520BD2 board Tested negative on ASUS P5B Deluxe. 1. # prtconf -pv to find out:- vendor-id: 11ab device-id: 4364 for successfull run "update_drv" 2. # pkgadd -d . SKGEsolx After failure of postinstallation script,wich doesn't contain valid PCI parameters in add_drv parameters list what causes failure to attach driver to system, proceed:- # update_drv -a -i '"pci11ab,4364"' skge # reboot -- -r Box went smoothly through "reconfiguration reboot". "Transitional reboot" option from GRUB Menu was selected. During reboot interface skge0 was plumbed and brought up. System came up clean.But character special oriented device 1. /devices/pci.../.../../...:skge0 has not been created 2. Symlink /dev/skge0 to this device has not been created. Regardless "igconfig -a" looked fine. Box was unreachable from local network. File /etc/path_to_inst contained exactly one entry of string ' "0" skge ' I believe, that OS is supposed to create device and and symlink /dev/skge0 to this device based on entry into /etc/path_to_inst . My question:- Is there any way to create mannualy a proper character special oriented device based on entry into /etc/path_to_inst for skge0 ? I guess major and minor number should be known and probably some other configuration files might be involved This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list [email protected]
