Infrastructure Software

Hi,

I resolved this problem by changing the BIOS settings:
PhoenixBIOS - Advanced System Configuration - BIOS Work Space Location
from (the default)
Top of Base Memory (optimizes for maximum available space for BIOS extensions as present on SCSI cards etc)
to
Expansion ROM Area (optimizes for maximum available DOS memory)

A note - I did not have this problem, on the same PC, with the Solaris 10 Early Access CD

Hope this helps you also

Thank you for your reply.

Unfortunately, I cannot find the setting item "BIOS Work Space Location" in the Advanced System Configuration menu. The item may be located in "extended configuration" menu. However, it is grayed and cannot be selected.

I heard that the pboot problem may be due to a new AMD64 support feature. So, you may not have this problem with early access CD. But the details are still unclear.

I just ran into the same problem. it gives the same condition on startup with two different mounted CDs
and it mokes no difference if u use dvd version or cd version. any one with any suggestion I am open . I can not get to the bios change mentioned above.


thnks

Not Enough Memorypboot: CDROM read error 

and i also cant access my extended configurations section (its grayed out, too). kiyomizu, how did you fix this (if you did?) and are there any suggestions/?
