Set both drives to cable select and you must use the probe-pci command
to view the disks at the prom level, hope this helps

Hi all,

 Can anyone tell me the cmmand to test the pci harddisk
controller of ultra Sparc 10 under OBP environment?

Also, how to connect two ide harrddisks(seagate 4.3G) in this machine?
As I try to connect them in master-slave configuration at 1st PCI
cable, or in two-master at 1st PCI and 2nd PCI cable, it still cannot
read harddisk using "format command" and only able to mount partition 0
of second harddisk. As a result, I cannot use command "dd if=c0t0d0s2
of=c0t2d0s2" to duplicate harddisk.

 Can anyone give me adivce? Thank you!

Regards,

 
 
 

1. Difference between Sparc 2, Sparc 10 and Ultra Sparc 10

I have a sparc 2 (40mhz...Weitek upgrade to 80 in some cases.. SBUS proprietary
slots)
Sparc 10 has proprietary SBUS slots but can take  2 processesors of  various
grades of
CPU(they must be identical) . Both of these designs are roughly 7+ years old.
Both
run SOLARIS  2.6 Both have I believe SCSI 2.  The ultrasparc is a single 300+
mhz (various grades) with standard PCI slots and maybe IDE drives...

Sincerely,

J.C. Magras

2. POP client that can use .procmailrc?

3. Sparc 10 vs. P3 800MHz - Web Server (and Sparc 10 value)
