Sun Fire V880

[Jaap Boender <jaapb%kerguelen.org@localhost>]

Hello everybody,

Don't know if it's useful to anyone, but I thought I'd report it anyway: 
I've tried to (net)boot the NetBSD-current snapshot from October 31 on a 
SunFire V880 we've got sitting around here. It all boots up fine, until 
the INSTALL kernel tries to bring up the SCSI bus, when I get a lot of 
messages like:

isp5: Interrupting Mailbox Command (0x69) Timeout (305296us actual)
isp5: Mailbox Command 'GET FW STATE' failed (TIMEOUT)

(the isp5 and 305296 numbers vary)

I've got access to the machine, so if anyone wants me to do something, 
test stuff, run other kernels, I'd be happy to...

Hope this helps anyone,

  Jaap Boender
