I was able to boot OpenBSD 5.5 and install, but unable to boot the current 10.1 iso for FreeBSD/sparc64. In a prior thread I was told that FreeBSD/sun4v support was never completed - is anyone working on support for these machines at all? If so, can I help in any way (ie: have access to the machine, could setup remote ssh to the ilom if someone needs/wants access/help to troubleshoot/work on one to start with). -- Nathan Vidican nathan@vidican.com (519) 962-9987 (Canada) (313) 586-1982 (USA) From owner-freebsd-sparc64@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Sep 27 04:45:41 2014 Return-Path: Delivered-To: sparc@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [8.8.178.115]) (using TLSv1 with cipher ADH-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTPS id E1F4F88C; Sat, 27 Sep 2014 04:45:41 +0000 (UTC) Received: from mail.soaustin.net (pancho.soaustin.net [76.74.250.40]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C3EF39F6; Sat, 27 Sep 2014 04:45:41 +0000 (UTC) Received: by mail.soaustin.net (Postfix, from userid 502) id 9EE3E5607D; Fri, 26 Sep 2014 23:45:40 -0500 (CDT) Date: Fri, 26 Sep 2014 23:45:40 -0500 From: Mark Linimon To: Nathan Vidican Subject: Re: sun4v / T5000 / Sun T2+ support Message-ID: <20140927044540.GC29144@lonesome.com> References: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.21 (2010-09-15) Cc: sparc@freebsd.org, sparc64@freebsd.org X-BeenThere: freebsd-sparc64@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.18-1 Precedence: list List-Id: Porting FreeBSD to the Sparc List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 27 Sep 2014 04:45:42 -0000 On Fri, Sep 26, 2014 at 11:34:57PM -0400, Nathan Vidican wrote: > In a prior thread I was told that FreeBSD/sun4v support was never completed > - is anyone working on support for these machines at all?
