I installed 5.0.2 -RELEASE/sparc on a SparcStation20.
After rebooting, the system stops after "dbri1: no mmcodec found".
This problem can be repeated by rebooting.

Any suggestions how to handle the problem?

Take the ISDN card out for now, we can't use it properly anyway. Or disable
the dbri driver if you can live without audio support.
Also, please send me the card's OBP properties so I can keep the dbri driver
from trying to attach to it - so far is doesn't know how to tell the
difference between onboard ISDN/audio chips and SBus ISDN boards without
audio codec when probing.

have fun

I took out the ISDN card and the problem was gone...now it works ;)

Alright, so the problem is what I think it is :)
Please try the attached patch with the ISDN board back in, it should no longer crash. This is kind of ugly though, there should be a way to tell an ISDN board from an onboard audio chip before attaching.

have fun
Michael
