System: NetBSD guelah 1.5V NetBSD 1.5V (guelah2) #1: Wed May 2 15:04:50 PDT 2001 root@guelah:/u5/current/src/sys/arch/sparc/compile/guelah2 sparc
>Description:
sparc/autoconf.c:bus_compatible() does not recognize SUNW,fas as esp;
thus booting off a SUNW,fas disk will cause bootpath[] to have a NULL
pointer for *dev and the kernel will prompt for the root and dump
devices in kern/kern_subr.c:setroot().
>How-To-Repeat:
boot a sparc off a disk on a SUNW,fas/hme (scsi fast-wide + FE)
sbus controller.
my ultrasparc 2 (with built-in fast-wide constroller, same chip) also
prompt for the root/dump device, but i have not tested or even looked
at this fix for sparc64 yet.
>Fix:
bus_compatible() needs to return "esp" as the compatible bus so that
device_register will continue and assign the *dev in bootpath[]
properly.
