 Question:
How do I get the Sparc debugger executables to work correctly under
Solaris
Answer:
The Sparc executables fail to operate under
Solaris 2.3 because the increased security of that OS only allows the root user to access
SCSI devices in the manner that our executables do.
To work around this issue, insure that all of the executables (
emurst, emu4x, emuload and pdm) are owned by root user and have the 6755 permissions set
via chmod. This will have the side effect that any files that the executables produce,
such as log files, saved memory files, and screen configuration files, will be owned by
the root user.
Example : Make the following changes as root :
chmod 6755 emurst emu4x
chmod root emurst emu4x
