Marion,
I have somewhat successfully brought up oi_148 on my v20z. I only had
two issues that I didn't have the time to work out so I'm back on
svn_134b
1) I couldn't get apcupsd to work. I'm sure this is due to some change
in libusb.
2) There was something sucking up cpu but not showing up in ps or
prstat. I think it was a service in quick restart mode.
I used the net installer from here:

This sounds more like the CD is corrupt and the drive is having
problems
reading the disk.
Two things to try... See if it installs on another machine and try an
external usb drive. In the past I found that the external drive to
be much
more reliable than the internal drive on the v20z.
I tested the disk on another machine already -- the checksum matches
that
of the original ISO image. No external CD drive's handy.
Also, I was able to install Solaris 11 Express 2010-11 on this same
V20z (from internal CD drive), and I then used that installed OS to
read the OI-148 CD on the V20z's internal CD drive. This also passed
the checksum test, although the read-speed did get a little dodgy
(slower, intermittent pauses) out toward the end of the CD.
So, I burned another copy (different color label, that should help :-),
and this one read back fine on the V20z, without the speed slow-downs
at the end. However, this also fails to install, giving the same bit
of an ide-driver timeout warning message before hanging.
I don't think we can blame this on a corrupted CD. The fact that the
same V20z, when it's running Sol11x-2010-11 can read the OI-148 CD
smoothly and without errors, indicates that the problem is not with
the disk or with the drive.
Is there anyone else out there who has got OI-148 running on a V20z?
Installed it from internal CD drive? I'm intending to build this as
our first AI install server for the Solaris-11 variants.
This particular V20z has the most recent firmware available, and has
been running Solaris-10 since it was purchased new, so hardware problems
are unlikely.
Regards,
Marion
