You got Solaris U6 to install on the Dell T105?
When I boot the latest official Solaris 10 U6 on my Dell T105, it
boots just fine but the install fails saying it cannot read the DVD.
It seems to be an issue with the new SATA drivers.
I don't understand what broke, because Solaris U4 and U5 booted and
installed fine.
Unfortunately, SATA DVD is the only method I have for installing.
I believe ATAPI SATA is only supported on AHCI controllers at the
moment. What controller does the Dell use?
Let me modify that reply:
The Dell uses an mcp55 pro, and my current install does report it is
using AHCI.
However, some people say that it doesn't really do AHCI.
I have no idea, I was just going by what Solaris dmesg printed.
