Netra X1 Server Product Notes • February 2001

Known Issues

The following sections cover some known issues with the early releases of the Netra
X1 server.

Ethernet Link Activity LED

There is an issue with the Davicom Fast Ethernet chip on some systems that can
cause the Ethernet activity/link light to flicker when no network cables are
connected to the system. You can correct this by installing the following patch from
SunSolve:

110693-0x: Netra X1 dmfe ethernet driver, link light

Sending Break During Boot Process Can Result In
Failure To See Disk On Reset

If a break is sent to the system console while the system is booting, there is a small
chance of a subsequent failure to detect the boot disk. The prom may report:

To recover, power the system off for 1 minute and then power it back on.

Boot device: disk  File and args:

Bad checksum in disk label

Can’t open disk label package

Evaluating: boot

Can’t open boot device
