Install failes in LDOM
Hi all,
I have seen several problem records with debian in a LDOM, so I am not
sure is it supported quite well. Nevertheless I tried to install
Wheezy 7.1 in a LDOM on a T5440 and get stuck during the installation.
What did I do:
* create an LDOM and set the debian ISO as a virtual device for that LDOM
ldm list-bindings primary
<snip>
VDS
NAME VOLUME OPTIONS MPGROUP DEVICE
/installmedia/debian-7.1.0-sparc-DVD-1.iso
debian71xfce
/installmedia/debian-7.1.0-sparc-xfce-CD-1.iso
...
freebsd
/installmedia/FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE-sparc64-disc1.iso
CLIENT VOLUME
...
debian71@n-test3-0 debian71
debian71xfce@n-test3-0 debian71xfce
<snip>
* boot the ldom from the device
{ok} boot debian71
* Installer starts and I could configure the keyboard
* switch to the shell and load necessary modules
modprobe sunvnet
modprobe sunvdc
quit
* Manually configure the CD-ROM in the installer to /dev/vdiskb
* "Load installer components from CD" starts but throws an error while
copying some modules:
There was a problem reading data from the CD-ROM. Please make sure it
is in the drive. If retrying does not work, you should check the
integrity of your CD-ROM.
* in the shell, dmesg shows following errors

* when I try to access files from the ISO image in the shell, every
now and then I get an "I/O error"
To me, it seems to be a problem with the sunvdc kernel module. Or did
I miss something? Any idea how to get debian installed successfully?
It would be great to have it running!
