I was wondering if someone has some advice or possible causes, as the internet is not being kind to me on this one. First, when booting Solaris I get these messages about the sync transfer rate being reduced: WARNING: /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3 (glm0): SCSI bus DATA IN phase parity error WARNING: /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3 (glm0): Target 0 reducing sync. transfer rate WARNING: /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3 (glm0): SCSI bus DATA IN phase parity error WARNING: /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3 (glm0): Target 1 reducing sync. transfer rate Not a big deal as far as I can tell. The system stays up and seems to be stable. I am sure both of the drives in the system are from this generation of the Sun family, and the same thing happens no matter which drive I leave in (or if I try different ones). I did reset the NVRAM to defaults to rule out any funky settings from the previous owner: Sun Ultra 30 UPA/PCI (UltraSPARC-II 296MHz), No Keyboard OpenBoot 3.27, 128 MB memory installed, Serial #9645376. Ethernet address 8:0:20:93:2d:40, Host ID: 80932d40. ok set-defaults Setting NVRAM parameters to default values. When booting a FreeBSD 5.2.1 miniinst ISO I get: (da1:sym0:0:1:0): READ(06). CDB: 8 0 0 1 1 0 (da1:sym0:0:1:0): CAM Status: SCSI Status Error (da1:sym0:0:1:0): SCSI Status: Check Condition (da1:sym0:0:1:0): ABORTED COMMAND asc:48,0 (da1:sym0:0:1:0): Initiator detected error message received field replaceable unit: 2 (da1:sym0:0:1:0): Retrying Command (per Sense Data) sym0: SCSI parity error detected: SCR1=3 DBC=11000000 SBCL=29 (da1:sym0:0:1:0): READ(10).

When booting a NetBSD 1.6.2 ISO I do not get many errors during the install, but after the reboot it just breaks into the debugger: sd0(siop0:0:0:0): command with tag id 1 reset sd0: async, 8-bit transfers, tagged queueing sd0: sync (50.0ns offset 15), 16-bit (40.000MB/s) transfers, tagged queueing siop0: unexpected phase mismatch 6 sd0(siop0:0:0:0): parity error siop0: scsi bus reset sd0(siop0:0:0:0): command with tag id 1 reset sd0: async, 8-bit transfers, tagged queueing exec /sbin/init.bak: error 5 init: not found panic: no init kdb breakpoint at 12c8354 Stopped in pid 1 (init) at cpu_Debugger+0x4: nop db> Just wondering if anyone has any ideas on this. Thanks in advance, Jeremy
