Hi Garret,

i booted with kmdb, but what do you mean with F1-A? Pressing "F1" + "A"? If yes, that doesn't work.
Can you explain me how to debug this problem?


So all in all its not a good idea to use smartos on a laptop?

Kind Regards,
Lukas

And what could be this next thing?

Another device driver, or even up in user space. To know, you’d need to debug it with kmdb most likely. If you boot with -k to kmdb, you can try pressing F1-A when it hangs, and then using kmdb $C to get a backtrace. That will probably be the most helpful. However, this may or may not work depending on where it is in the boot. And typically this level of debugging does require a certain level of skill with kmdb, etc.

Note that running on illumos on laptops is often a tricky proposition. Laptop hardware is constantly changing, and many devices found on laptops are ill supported, or even entirely unsupported, by illumos. (The reason for this is quite simple — the level of hardware churn in this space outpaces our engineering resources to focus on supporting such hardware — and none of the commercial contributors to illumos have expressed any desire to contribute towards supporting illumos on mobile, or even desktop, hardware much — pretty much all the investment is on server systems, where enterprise grade hardware tends to have far less churn, and better support for other operating systems that we can use to help bootstrap our efforts in illumos.)

Thanks, good to know!

For your additional information, could be good to know: I am using a Laptop "HP ProBook 6550b", so its an integrated keyboard.

The keyboard message is probably a red herring. It was the last thing to be detected. The thing that is hanging is probably the next thing and unlikely related.

Btw. The 8042 is PS/2 style controller not USB. But maybe emulated.

What type of keyboard are you using? I’ve had problems with a USB 2.0 keyboard (newer, slim Apple keyboard), but USB 1.1 keyboards work (old, thick plastic Apple keyboard).

Hi SmartOS Community,

i am using SmartOS for a few months but now i tried to move to another hardware and I got a problem. Everytime the bootup stucks. So i turned the verbose mode on to look where it hangs. The boot process stops at "kb80420 is /pci@0x0/isa@1f/i8042@1,60/keyboard@0", as you cann see in the screenshot in the attachment. I found some threads in the archives to this error but no one had a solution, so I hope you know the error and might help me.

Kind regards,
Lukas Kaltenbach
