Hi Jason,

could you please try without "happy face" (that progress bar)
in order to see, why/where the machine is hanging ?

When in GRUB, press 'e' and using 'd' remove following lines from
GRUB menu:

splashimage /boot/solaris.xpm
foreground d25f00
background 115d93

Also remove ",console=graphics" from kernel$ line.

Optionally, you might add "-kvd" to the kernel$ line
in order to enable kmdb and obtain more information -
if it turns out, it is not quite obvious, why machine
hung.

Then press 'b' in order to boot - progress bar shouldn't be there
and you could observe what's going on.

Also, could you please attach "install_log" file ?

Thank you,
Jan
