Solaris 8 x86: Webstart launcher causes reboot

807559Jan 24 2004 — edited Jan 30 2004
Hello,

My x86 PC has:
- Elitegroup K7S5A mainboard
- AMD Athlon K7 XP 2400+ Socket A thoroughbred CPU
- AmiBIOS
- 256 MB SDRAM
- 2 Hard Disks with 40 GB each

There was a resource conflict caused by SiS chipset. However, with a DCA floppy where the ata.bef file was patched, I was able to install the Solaris 8 x86 system successfully.

During installation process, on the question whether there is a network connected to the computer, I checked "No". This is because my network card is not detected by the system and I will investigate on that later.

Now, when I boot the system, the graphical system is coming up, but shortly after that the graphical system is terminated with the following message:

The Webstart launcher has terminated unexpectedly.
The Webstart launcher will restart following a system reboot.

Is there any idea about this error?

Thank you in advance!
Thomas
