Ok OSol just failed on me completely :-( Basically I exchanged my crappy ISP's router for a Cisco 877W. Set the box up and created a WPA encrypted wireless connection.
My notebook didn't connect. So I setup another wireless connection this time with no transmission encryption and my notebook connected for a bit. After a while the iwh0 interface became detached from the kernel according to dmesg and now fails to connect at all and even running wificonfig -i iwh0 scan claims that the network has no security; the avahi network daemon is claiming that I need to input a network key?? Now, before I was using a very long ethernet cable with my machine but since I have proper wireless functionality now I might as well make use of it! The rest of the issues and bugs still remain with the most annoying thing being that I cannot reboot my system I have to power off otherwise I get the errors mentioned previously and also I cannot upgrade as I can't take the machine down into single user mode as per the doc I found on upgrading from 132 to 133 while zones are attached and installed. This means that I can't get any driver updates as they all claim to be build 133 compatible :-( Heavy frustration I'm afraid right now so I'm back in Linux for the time being which is stable and allows me to have full connectivity..... Ps. This is only temp solution till I can get OSol working again but won't be able to without anyone's assistance!! Regards, Kaya Vikram Hegde wrote: > Hi, > > The BIOS error only affects IOMMU.
