[Qemu-devel] Solaris9 issues on today CVS sources.

[Qemu-devel] Solaris9 issues on today CVS sources.

[Karel Gardas]

Hello,

I've been able to use Solaris9 on qemu 0.5.5, but I have tried to update
to the latest (today) sources and found that the kernel does not boot
anymore. It is loaded, but then when it touch disc it prints:

WARNING: /pci@0,0/pci-ide/@1,1/ide@0/cmdk@0,0 (Disk 0):
        Error for command 'read sector' Error Level: Informational
        Sense Key: aborted command
        Vendor 'Gen-ATA ' error code: 0x3
WARNING: /pci@0,0/pci-ide/@1,1/ide@0 (ata0):
        timeout: reset target, target=0 lun=0

and this is repeated several times, till kernel boots again.

BTW: Reading changelog for 0.6.1, I've found this:

  - New block device layer

does this mean that the old mkcow images are not longer supported?

Thanks,

Karel

They should work except if there is a bug. Try with a raw image. 
Otherwise it is a recent change in the IDE driver.

Disable the emulated pci.
Try '-isa' .

Maybe this will help.
Please report your results.
