[OpenIndiana-discuss] Kernel panic with Intel i7-2670QM CPU (HP EliteBook 8560w)

Hello all,

A colleague attempted to boot oi_151a from CD on an HP EliteBook 8560w
laptop:

http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/sm/WF06a/321957-321957-64295-3740645-4307559-5071171.html

... the variant with Intel i7-2670QM. He got an immediate kernel panic,
and thinks that he saw a message about the CPU before the screen went
blank; which leads us to believe that 2670QM may be too "new" for oi_151a.

Has anyone else tried booting OpenIndiana with this CPU, or confirm
whether or not it can be used? Or are we looking at the wrong
explanation for the kernel panic?

He also tried some other variations of Solaris:

- - OpenSolaris snv_134 booted from an SSD also led to immediate kernel
panic.

- - Solaris 11 11/11 also got a kernel panic.

- - Oddly, OpenSolaris snv_111 could be booted, after issuing warnings
about a parser error in the cpudrv or cpupm module. But neither ethernet
nor wireless were recognized, and the old nvidia driver didn't work
(that could be updated).


Thanks,
Geoff
