I'm not sure, but I think that could be true.
It was m
Would I be right in saying that with acpi-user-options=8 my system will not
power off at shutdown? The reason I ask is that rebooting from solaris works
fine, but shutting down hangs after the message "syncing file systems... done".

Cancel that - for some reason my nsswitch.conf file got corrupted. DNS seems to
be working fine having re-copied nsswitch.dns to nsswitch.conf.

Hmm, for some reason the system hangs on boot if I use acpi-user-options=2, but
setting it to 8 works fine. This is only since I have enabled my network card
BTW.

OK, thanks for that. I've now got Solaris installed and running fine. The next
step was to get the network up and running, since Solaris didn't recognise it
aat first due to it being a Realtek card rebadged as a D-Link DFE-528TX, which
has different vendor and device IDs. I've got the network wo
This blog entry describes the acpi-user-options settings:
http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/chewmyblog?entry=a_bit_more_elucidation_on
acpi-user-options=2 completely disables ACPI.
With acpi-user-options=8, ACPI is not disabled, but the kernel won't use ACPI
to reconfigure interrupt
vectors. T
Can you tell me how these workarounds actually work? I'm guessing from what is
written on the bug page that acpi-user-options=2 disables ACPI - is that right?
What does setting it to 8 do?
Thanks
Andrew.

When you have snv_b20 installed, please test the other workarounds, too. I'd
like to know if
acpi-user-options=8 works around the bug. And if setting the kernel variable
uppc_unconditional_srs to 0 (instead of setting acpi-user-options) works around
the bug, too.
If you grab the opensolaris so
That seems to have fixed it! I guessed how to combine the -B
acpi-user-options=2 argument with the existing -B argument that was already
present - it seems that writing:
-B acpi-user-options=2,install-media=cdrom
works.
Does anyone know when this bug might get fixed?
Cheers
Andrew.
This mess
The motherboard in question is an Asus A7V133 which does indeed use a Via
chipset. I'll try those workarounds and let you know how it goes.

Hmm, so uhci is hanging, and this is a AMD 850 MHz box. What kind of chipset
is used in that box?
VIA VT82C686A ("VIA KT686") perhaps?
This could be bug ID: 6311029

OK, I've loaded kmdb by adding the -kd switch to the kernel command in Grub,
and it tells me that tge following modules are loaded:

Where do I go from here? I am sitting at a prompt that says this:

Thanks

See Dan Mick's blog how to enable verbose messages for loading of kernel
modules,
by setting the moddebug kernel variable. This helps to narrow down which of the
kernel modules might be responsible for the hang.
