Hi All,

I am writing a device driver which gets loaded very early in the boot
process (before the single user mode). My apprehension is that if it
go in a panic loop while bootup of the system then it could be endless
panic/boot cycle.

For solaris 10 I have work around to boot the system to none milestone
and remount the root file-system and remove the driver. But solaris 9
doesn't have none milestone nor fail-safe mode.

Once thing I can think of is to pass some information at ok in
boot-command (may be as a part of client-program-arg) which can be
check by the driver or some script and based on that loading can be
disable. But I don't how to access client-program-arg passed in boot
command.

Any help for how to access the client-program-arg or any other idea
would be great rescue.

Thanks and best regards,
Ajit
