Some DVD and CD-ROM Drives Fail to Boot Solaris
(4397457)
The default timeout value for the SCSI portion of the SunSwift PCI Ethernet/SCSI host adapter
(X1032A) card does not meet the timeout requirements of Sun's SCSI DVD-ROM drive
(X6168A). With marginal media, the DVD-ROM occasionally experiences timeout errors. The
only exceptions are Sun Fire 6800, 4810, 4800, and 3800 systems. These systems overwrite the
SCSI timeout value by means of OpenBoot PROM.
Workaround: For other platforms, use the on-board SCSI interfaces or DVD-ROM compatible
SCSI adapters, such as the following examples:
■
X1018A (SBus: F501-2739-xx)
■
X6540A (PCI: F375-0005-xx)
