Dell 1850 LSI MegaRAID Adapter Installation
When installing Solaris 10 01/06 on a Dell 1850 I receive a "no disk
found" error message. I assume that the drive/controller is not
recognized. The Dell 1850 is listed under the HCL for Solaris 10 10/06.
I don't believe I can use the Solaris(TM) Device Driver for the LSI
MegaRAID Adapter floppy with 1/06.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

boot single user from the DVD and run "prtconf -pv"
What's the output for the RAID controller?

It doesn't claim to be compatible with a LSI Logic vendor/device id.
You can try forcing amr(7D) or lsimega(7D) to bind to the device.
You can setup a Jumpstart server or create an ITU floppy
to update etc/driver_aliases

Re: Dell 1850 LSI MegaRAID Adapter Installation
Interesting. It works in Solaris Express 01/06. Here is the output of
the RAID controller section from a prtconf -pv in Solaros Express
01/05. Looks the same... Any ideas?

With Solaris Express / Solaris Nevada, the lsimega driver binds to this
device:
$ grep pci1028,13 /etc/driver_aliases
lsimega "pci1028,13.1028.16c"
lsimega "pci1028,13.1028.16d"

Re: Dell 1850 LSI MegaRAID Adapter Installation
There is a recently released LSI MegaRAID Adapter ITU Driver for
Solaris 10 01/06.

I don't have a floppy drive. Do you know how I can add the extracted
files to my jumpstart server (built with JET)?

With JET, I think you create a miniroot per the Jumpstart guide
and then just use JET to automate the add_install_client.
See the Jumpstart docs:
Solaris 10 Release and Installation Collection
>> Solaris 10 Installation Guide: Network-Based Installations
>> Installing Over a Local Area Network
>> 8. Preparing to Install From the Network With DVD Media (Tasks)
>> Creating an Install Server With DVD Media
You can then run pkgadd -R /install_dir_path SUNWlsimega
