Kernel Build Fails on 64-bit Install
On J2240 workstations having an SCSI floppy drive, cold-installing
64-bit OS will fail during the kernel build with an “unsatisfied symbols”
error.
What To Do Edit the /stand/system file to delete the floppy driver:
Step 1. In the shell provided, use vi to edit the /stand/system file:
vi /stand/system
Step 2. Delete the line: sflop
Step 3. Press Cntl D to close the window.
The install process should now rebuild the kernel and complete
successfully. The SCSI floppy drive will be non-operational, and is not
supported on this system with 64-bit 11i OS.
Known Issues With OE Media Install Tool and
Network Depots
The Ignite-UX install tool on the OE media supports the use of network
depots. However, network depots must match the media depots for the
choices in the install tool to work properly.
The Ignite-UX documentation also explains the setup and use of network
depots without using the OE media for each installation. See the
following web site for information on the Ignite-UX product:
