Problem with sunvdc driver in Solaris 11 LDOM installation
Hi everyone,
this is my first post to this list so
please be kind with me... :-)
I tried to install Debian sparc 7.4.0
in a Solaris LDOM.
Because i am behind a corporate firewall
the network install was no option.
When i tried to mount the cdrom after
modprobing sunvdc i recognize in dmesg
that all the iso-images Solaris exports
as virtualized CD/DVD drives are _exactly_
640MB even if its a DVD.iso. With the
hard disk images exported as virtualized
HDDs this is not the case.
So my workaround was to copy all the
iso image contents on a HDD image and
install from there.
1. Can anybody confirm this (or is this
even a known bug? i didnt find anything on Google though).
2. If it is a Bug, where is the appropriate
location to raise it?
Thanks in advance,
Claas Ziemke
p.s. i can post dmesg output etc. of-course,
just didnt want to spam the list with my first post :-)
