USB capable systems with small memory configurations might panic when booting from either disk, CD or a network when several USB devices are connected. One of the following panic messages will appear in this event:
panic[cpu0]/thread=1040800: main: unable to fork init. |
or
panic[cpu0]/thread=2a1000fdd40: BAD TRAP: type=31 rp=2a1000fd0a0 addr=c0 mmu_fsr=0 occurred in module "genunix" due to a NULL pointer dereference |
Workaround: If you have more than 4 USB devices, boot the system with only the USB keyboard and mouse connected. After you see the Solaris login prompt, connect the remaining USB devices.
