I am having issues getting a non-Solaris OS to install on it. I was
wondering if someone has some advice or possible causes, as the
internet is not being kind to me on this one.
First, when booting Solaris I get these messages about the sync
transfer rate being reduced:
WARNING: /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3 (glm0):
SCSI bus DATA IN phase parity error
WARNING: /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3 (glm0):
Target 0 reducing sync. transfer rate
WARNING: /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3 (glm0):
SCSI bus DATA IN phase parity error
WARNING: /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3 (glm0):
Target 1 reducing sync. transfer rate
Not a big deal as far as I can tell. The system stays up and seems to
be stable.
I am sure both of the drives in the system are from this generation of
the Sun family, and the same thing happens no matter which drive I
leave in (or if I try different ones).
I did reset the NVRAM to defaults to rule out any funky settings from
the previous owner:
Sun Ultra 30 UPA/PCI (UltraSPARC-II 296MHz), No Keyboard
OpenBoot 3.27, 128 MB memory installed, Serial #9645376.
Ethernet address 8:0:20:93:2d:40, Host ID: 80932d40.
ok set-defaults
Setting NVRAM parameters to default values.
When booting a FreeBSD 5.2.1 miniinst ISO I get:
(da1:sym0:0:1:0): READ(06). CDB: 8 0 0 1 1 0
(da1:sym0:0:1:0): CAM Status: SCSI Status Error

Which I cannot find anything on.
When booting a NetBSD 1.6.2 ISO I do not get many errors during the
install, but after the reboot it just breaks into the debugger:
sd0(siop0:0:0:0): command with tag id 1 reset
sd0: async, 8-bit transfers, tagged queueing
sd0: sync (50.0ns offset 15), 16-bit (40.000MB/s) transfers, tagged
queueing
siop0: unexpected phase mismatch 6
sd0(siop0:0:0:0): parity error
siop0: scsi bus reset
sd0(siop0:0:0:0): command with tag id 1 reset

exec /sbin/init.bak: error 5
init: not found
panic: no init
kdb breakpoint at 12c8354
Stopped in pid 1 (init) at cpu_Debugger+0x4: nop

Just wondering if anyone has any ideas on this.
Thanks in advance,
Jeremy
