Re: FreeBSD on Sun Fire V20Z
I am not familiar with this Sun unit, but on other sun sparcs their boot devices were set in the prom. As I recall the cd boot is not the same slice/dev as the FreeBSD one. You may try to drop to the prom and try other cd devices to boot from. -Derek At 12:27 PM 2/23/2006, Paul Schmehl wrote: Has anyone installed 6.0 RELEASE on this hardware?

Re: FreeBSD on Sun Fire V20Z
We use it since last August without problem. We have FreeBSD 5.4 for amd64 and it works great.
