We had installed 5.2-RELEASE on a Blade 150. it would work okay for a while, but would reliably die during a cvsup with a IOMMU fault at virtual address 0xC3000000 Uncorrectable DMA error AFAR 0x696000 AFSR 0x210000ff000000000 in the end the solution turned out to be to unplug the USB keyboard. I had found one message in the archives indicating the Blade150 needed to be installed without the keyboard because it wasn't supported at all, but this appeared not to apply: the machine installed fine and works for a while before panicing, always under network load. But, as it turned out, that was it. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Add a note to the sparc64 documentation that you really shouldn't have the keyboard plugged in a Blade150 even if it appears to work fine at first sight. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
