Hardware Compatibility List for Solaris 2.6 (Intel Platform Edition) October 2000

CHAPTER

This document provides information about general x86 hardware requirements and the peripherals and system platforms that are supported in the SolarisTM 2.6 Intel Platform Edition computing environment. Throughout the Solaris 2.6 release cycle, support for additional systems will be added to the product on an ongoing basis. This document will continue to be updated to describe the new support. You can access the locations listed in How to Obtain Updated Hardware Compatibility Lists and Device Driver Information on page 8 to see if a more current version exists.
Note - The term x86 refers to the Intel 8086 family of microprocessor chips,
including the Pentium, Pentium Pro, Pentium II, Pentium II Xeon, and Celeron processors and compatible microprocessor chips made by AMD and Cyrix. In this document the term x86 refers to the overall platform architecture, whereas Intel Platform Edition appears in the product name. System platforms listed in this document are tested as-shipped by the hardware manufacturers. Since it is the nature of this industry to have unexpected and unannounced changes, SunSoft is committed to working with customers who experience difculties installing the Solaris software on supported systems. If any problems are encountered with this release, contact your Sun Software Support Provider (SSSP). In North America, you can also call SunSoft Technical Support at 1-800-SUNSOFT, option 4.
Note - It is common practice for hardware vendors to release variants of a particular
hardware design under a single marketing name. In some cases, not all variants will work with the current Solaris device driver. Check Driver Update Guide for Solaris 2.6 (Intel Platform Edition) and Device Reference Manual for Solaris 2.6 (Intel Platform Edition) to see if they provide additional information about specic hardware versions supported by the current Solaris device driver.

How This Document Is Organized
This document is divided into these major sections:
4 General Requirements on page 10 lists the x86 hardware requirements for installing the Solaris 2.6 operating environment. 4 System Platforms on page 11 lists the platforms supported in the Solaris 2.6 Intel Platform Edition product; not all of the peripherals listed in Supported Devices on page 54 have been tested in all combinations on all of these platforms. This is not intended to be an exhaustive list of x86 machines that can run Solaris 2.6 software. 4 Supported Devices on page 54 lists the supported peripherals.
Specic machines and classes of devices are shown in these tables in this document.

Conventions Used

4 Pentium system platforms and motherboards listed in this document show the CPU type and speed in parentheses after the model name.
The term (P-xxx) indicates a Pentium processor; the xxx is replaced by the speed of the system in megahertz. For example, P-100 indicates a 100-MHz Pentium processor. 4 The term (PP-xxx) indicates a Pentium Pro processor; the xxx is replaced by the speed of the system in megahertz. For example, PP-150 indicates a 150-MHz Pentium Pro processor. 4 The term (PII-xxx) indicates a Pentium II processor; the xxx is replaced by the speed of the system in megahertz. For example, PII-233 indicates a 233-MHz Pentium II processor.
4 In Supported Devices on page 54, peripherals that require additional conguration and that have a Device Reference Page in Device Reference Manual for Solaris 2.6 (Intel Platform Edition) are marked with a # symbol. 4 Entries marked with an asterisk (*) are newly supported and require a Driver Update for proper operation.

This model is an MP server but has only been tested with one CPU. Requires substituting the network card with one supported by Solaris Intel Platform Edition. Must use a CD-ROM drive supported by Solaris Intel Platform Edition. Additional conguration is required to install the Solaris 2.6 software on this system; refer to the notes on Memory Mapping Problems in Solaris 2.6 (Intel Platform Edition) Release Notes for information. Server System. Integrated video currently only works in 640x480 VGA mode. Refer to the certication report for this system at http://access1.sun.com/certify/reports/DEC/. Requires non-default BIOS settings for proper operation. The three-disk CD-ROM changer is not supported at this time. Select Trident 9000 when conguring the display adapter, and be sure to upgrade the video RAM on the motherboard. System must be upgraded to a minimum of 1-Mbyte video memory and a minimum of 32-Mbytes system memory. The design of the Cache controller requires that you map out the memory range used by the SCSI controller, or the system will not work; the on-board hardware watchdog circuit R39 must also be disabled. Warning: FLASH BIOS must be write-protected before attempting to install the Solaris software; remove jumper JP9 on the motherboard and use at least BIOS revision -10. Only tested with vendors ATI Mach32 video option. Integrated audio chip is not currently supported. Must set the Adaptec SCSI BIOS to address CC000. This series of machines comes in various models and congurations. If the FCC ID label on the back panel of your machine contains one of the three-digit codes 430, 450, 470, 520, or 550, then it is based on a platform that was tested for compatibility and should run Solaris 2.6 Intel Platform Edition. However, ensure that other optional equipment and subsystems on your specic model are listed in this document. The newer version of this system had BIOS compatibility issues at the time of test. Also, attach the CD-ROM to the primary IDE channel. Built-in ATI video card currently only supported in 43-Hz mode. For Solaris compatibility, specify an STB S3 Trio video system by requesting option DE-15-200-2-SFC12-E16/ 1-DU-3P4I-U at time of order. For Solaris compatibility, specify an STB S3 Trio video system by requesting option DS-16-200-1.2-IFC8-E32/ 1S-DF-4P4I-U at time of order. For Solaris compatibility, specify an STB S3 Trio video system by requesting option DS-16-200-2-SFC8-E32/ 1S-DF-4P4I-U at time of order. For Solaris compatibility, specify an STB S3 Trio video system by requesting option DT-15-133-1.2-IFC8-E16/ 1S-CU-2P2I-U at time of order.

Supported Devices

Devices listed in this section have been successfully tested with Solaris 2.6 Intel Platform Edition in a varied but limited number of hardware congurations. While a complete system composed of the devices listed in this section should enable you to install and run the Solaris software, some combinations of devices may not be usable or may require additional conguration.
Note - Devices that require additional conguration and that have a Device
Reference Page in Device Reference Manual for Solaris 2.6 (Intel Platform Edition) are marked with a # symbol.
Note - Entries marked with an asterisk (*) are newly supported and require a Driver
Update for proper operation.

Cards with ASSY 03-0021-000, REV A printed on them do not work with the Solaris software. Card misdetects 8-bit slot. Some NE2000plus clones may only work in I/O or shared memory mode, depending on the system or conguration, while running Solaris software. Because certain board revisions have been found not to work, refer to the table in the DEC 21040, 21041, 21140, 21142, 21143 Ethernet Device Reference Page for additional information. Special conguration required; refer to the table in the DEC 21040, 21041, 21140, 21142, 21143 Ethernet Device Reference Page for additional information. Refer to the Compaq NetFlex-3, Netelligent Controllers Device Reference Page. Only the newer versions of these cards are supported. The versions successfully tested have stickers with the numbers 625-0367-00 and 625-0369-00; older versions of the card, for example, those with the number 625-0136-00, do not work.
