Greetings, I'm trying OI-dev-148 on a V20z, using the text-installer ISO burned to a CD. The kernel boots up from CD, but things hang right after the message: Preparing text install image for use
Just for comparison, Solaris 11 Express 2010-11 text installer ISO does not have the same problem. I've added "-kv" and "-d" to the boot args, but at the point the system hangs, the kernel is up, modules have all been loaded, and devices seem to all be recognized. The CD activity light blinks for awhile then the system just hangs. The SP power-off command ("platform set power state off") never returns, although adding the "-f" flag does power off the system. Once in awhile I do get a partial message about an ata timeout associated with the CD drive. I've added one or the other or both of the "-Batapi-cd-dma-enable=0" to the boot flags, or setting "use_mp=0" at the debugger, but the behavior does not change. The system does respond to the console "Break" signal (I'm using the Serial-over-LAN console in the SP) and allows use of kmdb, but it doesn't tell me much that I find useful. Sometimes a stack trace will show we're stopped in the mpt driver, but other times we're not. Let me know what I can to to debug further.
