I've given up on the idea of any Illumos flavour ever running on my
little home server, so I'm planning to swap out the main board.
The backstory of this is that I successfully ran Solaris 11 on it
(encrypted ZFS -- I'm paranoid) and when I upgraded the BIOS (I know,
never upgrade the BIOS, but I was hoping to fix a NIC oddity) it no
longer booted. I found if I disabled all but one core, Solaris would
still boot, and I still run it that way, which is pretty unsatisfactory.
SmartOS will not boot whatever I do. All other unix-like OSes run fine
across all cores. I have posted about this on the list before, but to no
avail.
I don't want to buy a whole new machine, so I need a Mini ITX
motherboard that'll take an i5 6400 (so 6th gen) CPU. Anyone got
anything that's known to work? The one that doesn't is an ASUS H110I-Plus.
thanks in advance
Rob
Hi Rob,
I don't know of a suitable mini ITX motherboard but it seems that there
were three BIOS updates since your original February post regarding the
motherboard. Perhaps you can take a chance updating to the latest BIOS?
Or perhaps you can downgrade to a known working one?
Good luck,
Michal
