[Q]: Prestoserve 2.4 and Solaris 2.3?
Anthony Yen
On a SS10/512 with 128 Mbyte RAM, Solaris 2.3, all patches up to 18
January 1994 from the SunSolve:Online database, I cannot get version
2.4 of Prestoserve to run. Here is what I get when I install under
swm :
* * * Installing Prestoserve device driver
cp -p pr /kernel/drv/pr
cp -p /etc/devlink.tab /etc/devlink.tab.prepresto
echo "type=ddi_pseudo;name=MMI,prestoserve pr\M0" >> /etc/devlink.tab
add_drv -m '* 0644 root sys' -i 'MMI,prestoserve' pr
/kernel/drv/pr: undefined symbol panic_opt
pr error doing common
drvconfig: System call 'modctl_modconfig' failed: No such device or address
Warning: Driver (pr) configuration failed.
System could not install the driver.
presto_chango: unexpected return code 1
Installation of <SUNWprsto> was successful.
Re-initializing list of installed software
Okay...if I try to install over this, however, swm does not complain,
and thinks Prestoserve is running. But if I get out and run:
presto
I get:
presto: can't open `/dev/pr0': No such file or directory
I really wish the install script from Legato was a wee bit smarter
about handling this error; notice how it doesn't complain to swm, so
swm gleefully insists the install was successful and whisks me back to
the main menu before I could say, "Waitasec...".
Anyone else out there running Solaris 2.3 with a Prestoserve card?

2.4 Prestoserve doesn't work with Solaris 2.3. You need 2.4.1 Prestoserve.
