RE: Sparc netinst

["Tennis Smith" <tennis@cisco.com>]

Hi,

Well, I'm almost there... Everthing is installed. But when I do the final
reboot after installation, the systems goes a constant reboot loop. Its as
if its still trying to reboot Solaris.

How do I fix this?


Example output:
Rebooting with command:
Boot device: /iommu/sbus/espdma@f,400000/esp@f,800000/sd@3,0  File and args:
SunOS Release 5.5.1 Version Generic_103640-12 [UNIX(R) System V Release 4.0]
Copyright (c) 1983-1996, Sun Microsystems, Inc.
Cannot mount root on
/iommu@f,e0000000/sbus@f,e0001000/espdma@f,400000/esp@f,800
000/sd@3,0:a fstype ufs
panic: vfs_mountroot: cannot mount root
rebooting...
Sesetting ...


TIA,
-Tennis
