Re: [osol-help] opensolaris 64 bit version
I am sorry, I need to clearify something here, please do not take this as an offense. Actually what happens on boot up is, that either the 32bit kernel or the 64bit kernel get's loaded, meaning any installation of solaris is equipped with 2 kernels (double space required than an installation with only one kernel). Please do not mix up linux and the linux distributions. Linux is only the kernel, the distributions all include the kernel and lot's of GNU Software and other Software. So there might be a linux distro with this exact feature (I do not now since there are tons of them out there). For a linux pro it is not really hard to create a linux installation/distribution, that actually boots as 32bit or 64bit depending on the underlying system. Another drawback of this feature is, that every binary, every program has to be installed in it's 32bit and 64bit build, which again leads to double required disk space. True is the fact, that even Windows Pros cannot create a double kernel installation the way they can on linux or solaris. So in my opinion this feature is rather a drawback (except for some special scenarios in which you switch your cpu frequently ;-), but I bet you can tell the solaris installer to only install 32bit or 64bit. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org

Hmm, so with kernel debugger it doesn't reboot, but hangs? On the last line, is that pcic_pci0 or pcie_pci0? pcic(7D) – Intel i82365SL PC Card Interface Controller (=PCMCIA bus) http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2254/pcic-7d?a=view pcie_pci(7D): pcie_pci – PCI Express bridge nexus driver http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-5177/6mbbc4g8v?a=view When it hangs after printing "pcie_pci0 is /pci0, 0/pci1106, a...@2", is it possible to break into kmdb by typing "F1-a" (press and hold down F1 function key, and press "a")?

Hmm, it seems to have problems with some PCIe bus; mabye the hang is caused by a PCIe video card, but I guess it could be any other PCIe / PCI bus device in this machine. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org

Ok, that sounds as if the system gets a kernel panic and restarts. Try to boot with the kernel debugger enabled, that should allow you to read the kernel's panic messages. Edit the grub boot commands, and append options "-kv" at the end of the kernel$ line. Boot using the modified entry. In case there is a kernel panic, the system drops to the kmdb prompt. At the kmdb prompt, you can use the commands ::status ::stack ::msgbuf Output from these commands would be useful to get an idea about the possible cause for the panic. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org

Re: [osol-help] opensolaris 64 bit version
Any version of OpenSolaris that you download IS the 64-bit version. You just download the ISO and burn it to a CD and boot it up on an amd 64-bit CPU and you now have a 64-bit UNIX operating system. OpenSolaris is much smarter than Linux and Microsoft Windows are in that it can automatically tell whether your hardware is 32-bit or 64-bit and it will automatically reconfigure itself to run in either 32 or 64 bit mode depending on what kind of hardware it is running on (this is one of the areas in which I think the Solaris kernel engineering is superior to that of most other operating systems). If you have 64-bit hardware, but you want to force OpenSolaris to boot into 32-bit mode, you can change the parameters passed to the UNIX kernel at boot time in grub and tell it to boot into 32-bit mode that way (in spite of the fact that you have 64-bit hardware). If you have 32-bit hardware, but want to try to force it to boot into 64-bit mode, it won't work because the hardware only supports 32-bits. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org

It should support an amd 64 cpu. What exactly does not work on your amd 64 system? Note that GRUB on the livecd needs at least 1GB of memory to enable booting the 64-bit kernel. (min_mem64=1000 in the CD's boot/grub/menu.lst file) There is no such memory limit for the installed system. > Is there a link or a bitorrent of opensolaris 08.11 64 bit version?
