Summary 32-bit to 64-bit conversion: msg#00095os.solaris.managers.summaries
###How can I change Sol 8, 32-bit to 64-bit#### Thanks to Dave Leach,Ole Martin Refvik,Rick McKinney,Mark Hargrave,Deborah Santomauro,Jeremy Rodriguez,Gaziz Nugmanov, Responses are summarized ======================= 1. http://soldc.sun.com/articles/64_bit_booting.html 2. boot from the file /platform/sun4u/kernel/sparcv9/unix OK>boot <boot_disk> /platform/sun4u/kernel/sparcv9/unix 3. Document ID 21434 FAQ on Booting Solaris to either the 64-bit kernel or the 32-bit kernel 4. /usr/sbin/eeprom boot-file="kernel/sparcv9/unix" then reboot 5. Login as root and use the eeprom command to set the boot-file parameter to the 32-bit kernel: # /usr/sbin/eeprom boot-file="kernel/unix" The next system reboot will boot the 32-bit kernel or (OR) === vi /platform/sun4u/boot.conf uncomment and verify that the line looks exactly like this: ALLOW_64_BIT_KERNEL_ON_UltraSPARC_1_CPU=false reboot and then once the system is back up, verify that it is truly running 32-bit with "isainfo -b" 6. eeprom or the ok prompt boot-file = kernel/unix Will always boot into 32-bit mode Thanks Muhammad |
