Hi Managers,
Thanks to Jason Timmins I have a workaround for the zs problems.
It turns out that Solaris 2.6 has a problem with the serial drive if you don't
have the Sun connected to a network and the EEPROM setting tpe-link-test?=true.
I now have my machine connected to a small ethernet hub and the serial problem
are no more!!!
