Work Around
|
Do not use ohci driver, though this is not suitable for workstations.
Add the following two lines to to /etc/system
* Workaround for CR 6673333, remove as soon as final fix is installed
exclude: drv/ohci
Do not forget to redirect console to the serial port (if it is not redirected yet).
This will preven use of Virtual CDROM/Floppy/Keyboard/Mouse and make RKVM useless, but it is fine for server machines as console access through serial port is even more convenient, and virtual CDROM and Floppy are quite slow, so it is better to share physical ones from some other machines or mount images with lofiadm.
