Hi,

  SunBlade 1000 use the same motherboard as SunFire E240R. It uses NVRAN. It should be QLogic Fiber Channel controller with FC HD.
Anyway, do:
ok boot disk

If not work, do:
----
ok probe-scsi-all

Write down the screen and post here.

Or boot from Solaris first CD.
ok boot cdrom
and run "fsck -y" to check the disk.

Wesly

Note sure what probe-scsi-all is going to do when its an IDE disk.

Who say it's IDE disk?
SunBlade 1000 (not SunBlade 100) doesn't have IDE controller.
It's Fiber Channel Disk.

Wesly

Hi,
When I ran probe-scsi-all
This is what I got

/pci@8,600000/sunw,qlc@4

Hi, That was not complete

And I got the three drives on the system

Have you try to boot from cdrom and run "fsck -y"?
It could be filesystem error and need to run fsck.

Wesly

Hmm, yes, I misread the device spec, nothing sez it was an IDE disk.

Hi,

It says ECC error corrected and then
?{ok}

what does this mean

waiting for the reply

Memory check is in POST(PowerOn System Test). If you can not pass memory check, then you can not go further.
Open the Sun box case with extreme care if you are not familar with it.

Call Sun warranty (1 year) support first.

Hi,
I have one more question. We have another sun Blade 2000 system.
I wanted to connect to the net.

Can you tell me the step by step procedure to connect to the net.
Like I have a T1 connection.
When I connect to windows it connects automatically

How do I do this in solaris

will be waiting for your reply

> sun Blade 2000 system. I wanted to connect to the net
It's out of this topic.

As root, do
sys-unconfig
and reboot. Then follow the instruction to config the network step-by-step.

Wesly

Hi,
I have done that.

I have some doubts regarding that

Like: it asks for NIS and other things like IP address of the internet server.
But when I connect it through windows it doesnt require all that so I dont know that stuff.

I have done the sys-unconfig and tried setting it up
Can you elaborate and tell me how to set up for a T1 lan connection

will be qaiting for your reply

Please open another question for suitable topic. So people can find the similar solution easier in EE.

Just a quick post with regards to the connecting to the net. I have been having trouble lately and checked the following.

Go to your /etc from root.
Check to see that you have the following files - defaultrouter, defaultroute ( if you cat or vi them you should she the router address if not......then

echo 192.168.2.1 > defaultrouter
echo 192.168.2.1 > defaultroute

Needless to say the IP address should equate to your relevant address

One other thing to check is the resolv.conf

It should read

domain anything.com
nameserver 192.168.2.1
search anything.com

Again change your details to suit.

I have checked these after installs on Solaris 9 and Linux and have got through each time after adding  these files and giving a quick reboot.

Hope it helps

Regards
