Okay, so I have my kernel up and running, silo is happy, uncompresses the kernel and i start the boot. I get past all the hardware detection stuff and get to the startup where it starts to mount stuff...

* Mounting /proc [ok]
* Mounting /devfsd [ok]
* Mounting tmpfs at /mnt/.init.d... [oops]

*The mount command failed with error:
wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on tmpfs or too man mounted file systems

It then has me give the root password to get into single user mode, but evertyhing is frozen at that point, and they keyboard seems non responsive. I have to hard reset the system. Any ideas where this is coming from? I check /etc/fstab and there is nothing there mentioning a tmpfs anywhere. :(

Yuck, I take that back

I see this in all the dmesg stuff before the pretty colors :P
Code:

VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly.
Mounted devfs on /dev
SABRE0: Uncorrectable Error, primary error type [DMA Write: Translation Error]
SABRE0: bytemask[00ff] dword_offset[0] was_block(0)
SABRE0: UE AFAR [000000..0017fc000]
SABRE0: UE Secondary errors [(none)]
SABRE0: IOMMU ERROR, type[Invalid Error]
..
..
 


Any thoughts?

I'm also using the 2.4.20 kernel if that helps. Should I try an older version?

Never seen that before. Is this a Sun Blade 100?

The only section in my dmesg that look relevant to SABRE stuff is this:

Code:
POSIX conformance testing by UNIFIX
PCI: Probing for controllers.
PCI: Found SABRE, main regs at 000001fe00000000, wsync at 000001fe00001c20
SABRE: Shared PCI config space at 000001fe01000000
SABRE: DVMA at c0000000 [20000000]
PCI-IRQ: Routing bus[ 0] slot[ 8] map[0] to INO[23]
PCI-IRQ: Routing bus[ 0] slot[ c] map[0] to INO[06]
PCI-IRQ: Routing bus[ 0] slot[ c] map[0] to INO[1c]
PCI-IRQ: Routing bus[ 0] slot[ c] map[0] to INO[24]
PCI-IRQ: Routing bus[ 0] slot[ d] map[0] to INO[0c]
PCI-IRQ: Routing bus[ 0] slot[13] map[0] to INO[0f]
PCI0(PBMA): Bus running at 33MHz
isa0: [dma -> (floppy) (parallel)] [power] [serial] [serial]
ebus0: [flashprom] [eeprom] [idprom]
PCIO serial driver version 1.54


Checked all connections on your board and all?

I fixed that problem by re-compiling the kernel without /dev/pts support (in the 'filesystems' section)
