Using MDB to dump option rom

807559Jul 24 2007

Hi,

I'm having a problem with an LSI raid card. On a cold start it's always fine. On a soft reboot, after 7+ days of uptime, about 30% of the time it fails to initialize in bios and my system hangs w/ no boot device. I have a bunch of identical systems deployed.

I was trying to use mdb to dump the option rom space, to see if it's getting corrupted somehow. At least then I could predict a failure. In DOS, I can use debug.exe and "d c800:0000" to dump that memory space, but I have not been successful doing this under solaris.

Any help?
