Okay. Thanks. Well, I tried using "sr0", but am still getting the same
error. Below. Note, I checked my "bioctl softraid0" which looks like yours,
and the disklabel of my sd4 (the softraid disk) looks about like yours too.
a 1g 4.2BSD filesystem at offset 0.
Something is still wrong on my end. So, before the difference in the output
of OBP boot command, I notice you said "disk0" above, but your eeprom output
below shows "vdisk0". Do you have a vdisk0 devalias on your system?
After that, there's just the different response I see compared you yours.
I get:
Boot device: /pci@0/pci@0/pci@2/scsi@0/disk@2 File and args: sr0
OpenBSD IEEE 1275 Bootblock 1.4
>> OpenBSD BOOT 1.12
ERROR: /iscsi-hba: No iscsi-network-bootpath property
Unknown device: sr0
Cannot boot from softraid: Unknown error: code 19
And, you see:
sr0*
Booting sr0:a/bsd
where I see:
Unknown device: sr0
Cannot boot from softraid: Unknown error: code 19
Any idea why the bootloader says "sr0*" for you, and "Unknown device" for me?
Thanks...
