Hi, Thanks to Steve Butterfield - he nailed it. His reply is attached below, as is my original post. Many thanks for the quick reply - I'm now back in action. -----Original Message----- From: Steve Butterfield [mailto:steveb@pcs.co.uk] Sent: 12 September 2005 10:48 To: Round, Mark - CALM Technical <Mark_Round@ipcmedia.com> Subject: Re: Ultra10 hangs at boot Mark, Often this is what happens when the Serial port PROM settings have been changed - The hanging part is usually the ttya-ignore-cd field has been set to false so it waits indefinately for Carrier to go high before it can continue if you set this to true it should continue.

It was powered off over the weekend while some maintenance work was going on, when I turned it back on this morning, it refuses to boot. I have tried booting from both mirrors (DiskSuite), and even tried a variety of Solaris installation CDs. Same problem each time - it gets as far as printing out "se0 is /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/ebus@1/se@14,400000", then a strange character gets displayed at the start of the line (in this case "Je0 is....", but it changes each time I boot), and then the system hangs indefinitely. I can still break into OBP, but everything else seems hung. I'm using a serial connection to port A, no monitor or keyboard is attached. Any ideas what could be causing this ? Full diagnostic and verbose boot attached below, and I will of course summarise any responses. Thanks in advance, -Mark Software Power ON @(#) Sun Ultra 5/10 UPA/PCI 3.15 Version 2 created 1998/11/10 10:35 Clearing E$ Tags Done Clearing I/D TLBs Done Probing Memory Done MEM BASE = 0000.0000.2000.0000 MEM SIZE = 0000.0000.1000.0000 11-Column Mode Enabled MMUs ON Copy Done PC = 0000.01ff.f000.1fec PC = 0000.0000.0000.2030 Decompressing into Memory Done Size = 0000.0000.0006.e660 ttya initialized Reset Control: BXIR:0 BPOR:0 SXIR:0 SPOR:1 POR:0 UltraSPARC-IIi 2-2 module Probing Memory Bank #0 256 + 256 : 512 Megabytes Probing Memory Bank #2 0 + 0 : 0 Megabytes Probing UPA Slot at 1e,0 Nothing There Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1 at Device 1 pci108e,1000 network Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1 at Device 2 SUNW,m64B Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1 at Device 3 ide disk cdrom Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1 at Device 1 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1 at Device 2 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1 at Device 3 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1 at Device 4 pci Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 0 pci108e,1000 SUNW,qfe Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 1 pci108e,1000 SUNW,qfe Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 2 pci108e,1000 SUNW,qfe Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 3 pci108e,1000 SUNW,qfe Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 4 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 5 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 6 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 7 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 8 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 9 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device a Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device b Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device c Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device d Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device e Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device f Nothing there Reset Control: BXIR:0 BPOR:0 SXIR:0 SPOR:1 POR:0 UltraSPARC-IIi 2-2 module Probing Memory Bank #0 256 + 256 : 512 Megabytes Probing Memory Bank #2 0 + 0 : 0 Megabytes Probing UPA Slot at 1e,0 Nothing There Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1 at Device 1 pci108e,1000 network Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1 at Device 2 SUNW,m64B Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1 at Device 3 ide disk cdrom Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1 at Device 1 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1 at Device 2 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1 at Device 3 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1 at Device 4 pci Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 0 pci108e,1000 SUNW,qfe Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 1 pci108e,1000 SUNW,qfe Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 2 pci108e,1000 SUNW,qfe Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 3 pci108e,1000 SUNW,qfe Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 4 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 5 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 6 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 7 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 8 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device 9 Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device a Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device b Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device c Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device d Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device e Nothing there Probing /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@4 at Device f Nothing there Sun Ultra 5/10 UPA/PCI (UltraSPARC-IIi 360MHz), No Keyboard OpenBoot 3.15, 512 MB memory installed, Serial #10492698.
