RE: Emulating Solaris 10 on SPARC64 sun4u

[jasper.lowell]

I haven't figured out where that is coming from.
The error doesn't look like it's in the OpenSolaris source code so I don't have 
any context behind it.
The error does show up here: 
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1475/uata-7d.html so it might be 
related to the IDE controller.
The behaviour of Solaris 10 does make me think there is a problem with 
interrupts but OpenBSD works just fine on this architecture.

I've also tried using kmdb (Solaris kernel debugger) by running using `boot 
cdrom -kvd` at the OpenBIOS prompt.
I thought this might help diagnose the problem.
After the kernel debugger prompt occurs and I type `::cont` to continue, the 
system hangs completely.

Thanks,
Lowell.

GIven that your problem below is looking like an interrupt related problem, 
have you figured out where that's coming from?
