Dear Team, I have some good progress to call, while installing Sparc64 on Sun Fire v440 servers.
The first server fitted with 2 34GB disks. There's is nothing special while installing, I just used /dev/sda, freeing /dev/sdb. Because i am from the Netherlands, the installer needs a mirror host, so set just, deb.debian.org, and changed the dir to debian-ports. Almost after installing i start a chroot, and run # systemctl enable se [email protected], to be sure ttyS0 does workout. It boot Debian well with the default Silo. After finish up installing, and poweroff, i inserted 2 extra old 139GB disks into the other trays. But OBP does not sees them as target disks, but volume. That's new for me now, but nice to find out. {3} ok probe-scsi-all This command may hang the system if a Stop-A or halt command has been executed.

How do i get Unit 0 & 1 also into a volume like 2. I read up, Solaris does a command # raidctl. Anyone experience? I am sure, i need to reinstall after that. Thanks, Frnas van Berckel
