I finally were able to get the ai install working. I PXE boot the client from serial console and the installation seems to be redirected to VGA, becasue i am stuck here
SunOS Release 5.11 Version snv_111b 32-bit .. Copyright 1983-2009 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved. Use is subject to license terms. I noticed the menu.lst.osol shows livemode=text. Do I need to change it to ttya for the installation can be done through serial console ?
