Solaris Express And This Message


Recommended Posts

I downloaded Solaris Express (2/06), when I booted laptop using Solaris CD1, the process of the setup stuck on this secreen:

SunOS Release 5.11 Version Sun_31 32-bit
Copyright 1983-2005 Sun Microsystems, Inc.Use is subject to license terms
Configuring devices.

Is this something related to CD itself ? or something elase ?

Thanks

Then I have been advised to use verbos booting arguments

I inserted the CD1, the GRUB menu is displayed.

Solaris
Solaris Serial Console ttya
Solaris Serial Console ttyb (for lx50, v60x and v65x)

1- I chose option 1

2- e---for edit, the following text are displayed in the GRUB menu:

kernel /boot/multiboot kernel/unix -B install_media=cdrom
module /boot/x86.miniroot

3- I chose option 1 as well.

4- I added this:

kernel /boot/multiboot kernel/unix -B install_media=cdrom -v -m verbose

5- The output is long message, the end part of this message is:

ata1 is  /pci@0,0  / pci-ide@1f,1 /ide@1
Ultra DMA mode 5 selected
Ultra DMA mode 2 selected
Ultra DMA mode 2 selected
Ultra DMA mode 2 selected

Pseudo-device:winlock0
Winlock0 is /pseudo/winlock@0

6- Screen stuck with this message.
