Seems that openbios is missing something that Solaris needs to complete the boot process. I posted a entry on the qemu users forum but got no replies. The boot seems to be failing after the initial boot program is loaded from the disk, it seems unable to find the second stage boot program, so it is probably something related to how the second stage should identify the boot device. The Sun OBP (For sun4v...) and bootprog sources are availabe, but they are writen on some language I never heard of before (Forth). I could not find any parameters to debug the openbios boot process or the solaris bootprog. Any sugestions? Best Regards, Luis
