Hi gurus,
I have a problem with a HP DL 380 running solaris 10 x86 here:
Although it's obvious that this is a 64-bit system, the machine boots a
32-bit kernel, as isainfo -v tells me:
root@suppenkaspar # isainfo -v
32-bit i386 applications
pause sse2 sse fxsr mmx cmov sep cx8 tsc fpu
Hm, since we'd like to use this as an Oracle DB-Server, it's not very
nice to use the 32-bit version...
I've tried to add the amd64/genunix-kernel to the menu.lst of GRUB, with
the following entry:
title Solaris 10 1/06 s10x_u1wos_19a X86
root (hd0,0,a)
kernel /platform/i86pc/multiboot kernel/amd64/genunix
module /platform/i86pc/boot_archive
But, with this entry, the machine refuses to boot, it just gives the
following error message:
panic: cannot open kernel/amd64/genunix
Press any key to reboot
I've also tried /kernel/amd64/genunix, also without success...
Machine is an HP DL380 with two 2.8 GHz CPUs and 4 GB memory, and OS is
Solaris 10 x86 rel. 1/06 with EIS-patches from April 06.
Any ideas??
Thanks in advance, will (of course) summarize,
Harald
