> There have been issues reported with missing sunvdc/sunvnet modules. I tested in an LDOM via Solaris 11.3 on a T5220 and had this issue.
The sunvdc/sunvnet modules are not probed/loaded from the installer, nor in the installed system. workaround: load modules from installer shell, post-install chroot into the installed system, add modules to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and run update-initramfs -uv The Debian wiki mentions adding custom modules to the installer is possible[1], and it seems that the modules used to be there[2] No other issues with the installer, auto-partitioning (EXT4), etc were encountered Post-install, I see few other issues - no login presented on ldom console -- I see init messages[3], but no login prompt. workaround: install openssh-server from chroot before reboot - device initialization / fdisk logic issue[4] (line 13) - n2_crypto failures[5] (possibly due to my LDOM config, debugging) - /etc/resolv.conf being populated only with IPv6 nameservers despite having DHCP+DHCPv6 available (possibly due to my network/vnet config, debugging) let me know if any additional info is needed.
