Detail

Type:	Motherboard
Manufacturer:	SuperMicro
Model:	X5DL8-GG
Support:	Buy Solaris Subscription (Solaris 10, Solaris Developer Express Only) OpenSolaris Subscription
Level: (What's this?)	Reported to Work (Solaris 10, Solaris Developer Express Only) Note: All OpenSolaris entries are 'Reported to Work'
Runs on Solaris Versions:	Solaris 10 08/07 to Solaris 10 05/08 (including Solaris Express, Developer Edition 01/08) OpenSolaris 2008.05
CPU Type:	Intel Xeon

Num Cores (per CPU):	2
BIOS: Firmware Maker and Version	1.3
General Notes:	System seems to have a BIOS problem (tested BIOS 1.2S and 1.3), installation hangs just after Grub. As a workaround I'm setting the kernel variable "dobiosdev" to 0; that skips some of the startup code and avoids the reset_disk() call. To set the variable: - boot the kernel with options "-kdv" during first installation. - at the kmdb prompt "dobiosdev/W 0" followed by "::cont" Add a line "set dobiosdev = 0" to /etc/system after you installed Solaris.
