Solaris 10 b69 and EPIA Mini-ITX Boards

807559Nov 18 2004 — edited Feb 5 2005

I am trying to install the Solaris 10 on a EPIA PD
see http://www.viaembedded.com/product/epia_PD_spec.jsp?motherboardId=241 for details

But then when it starts loading the kernel (no matter which install option I choose) as it passes controll to the kernel which may just get to
print out the first line I can be sure as thats when the mahine resets (clearing the screen!!) and starts to load the bios again!!!!

I would actually like to get the new board from vie the EPIA PS board that has been talked about using the new CN400 chipt set looks much faster!! see here

http://www.viaembedded.com/product/epia_sp_spec.jsp?motherboardId=241

But untill then I have the PD versions. Has ANYONE got this to start up and install, I have founf ethernet drivers and a CLE266 screen acc for the X11 (xfree, but I think will work on X.org too) but just can't get it to install!!!!

If you have WHICH via board are you using and which Solaris build? I think this could be an amazing set of kit for Solaris to run on..... i
