[SunHELP] SunPCi Installation Problems

[Suhas Kamble]

I think of 2 things..

first the 1.3 SunPCi runs only 2.6 & above.
if u want to stay on 2.5.1. for some reasons, then u can use the lower
version of SunPCI which is 1.2a & u also need to upgrade the OBP in either
case.

all the best..

Hello all:

I am having problems installing a SunPCi card in an Ultra 5.  Following

Thank you,

The following packages are available:

                  (sparc) 1.3
.....etc.....

System Data:

2.5.1 Recommended patch cluster downloaded 1/01 and installed

Other Details:

/usr/sbin/prtconf shows SUNW,CS4231 and pci108e,5043 as per SRDB ID
22075
/etc/devlink.tab has final two lines:
	#The following lines added for the SunPCi Device Driver
	type=ddi_pseudo;name=pci108e,5043       sunpcidrv\N0
Sun Wabi is installed on Ultra 5
Infodoc ID 18474 indicated that an Ultra 5 with Solaris 2.5.1 HW3 can
use OBP patch 106121-12 or later.
On the web page where SUNWspci.13.tar.Z is downloaded, it is stated that
this software is compatible with 400 MHz SunPCi and Solaris 2.5.1 and
up.
In the SunPCi 1.3 Read Me First, it is stated that this software is
compatible with Solaris 2.6 and up.

Questions:

1) What is ddi_peek32?
2) Do I need to apply OBP upgrade 106121-13?
3) Is SUNWspci.13.tar.Z compatible with Solaris 2.5.1 11/97?
4) What have I missed?
