Thank you, Jan.
I tried you solution, and the weird thing is when I remove the items
#######################
splashimage /boot/solaris.xpm
foreground d25f00
background 115d93
Also remove ",console=graphics" from kernel$ line
Then add -kvd to enable kmdb
#######################
The OS could boot up correctly and the XWindows is working correctly, but
it is after I manually configure the IP Address since X could not start up
on the machine could not get IP Address through DHCP automatically.
Next I tried to start it again and keeping ",console=graphics" while removing
"splashimage, foreground and background", it shows a blank console
after grub which console show nothing and it always keeps in this situation
and no much progress is made. So it seems like the "console=graphic" on kernel
module results in the issue. I am using the snv_101a as Dom0 and install
OpenSolaris 200811 nightly image which was built on Oct.31. MDT.
So there are 2 issues here:
1. Is this "console=graphic" used by "virtual console" module? Obviously it
hinder the machine from booting. Or maybe this keywords redirect console to a
kind
of GUI mode which console or kmdb could not show?
2. Another issue here is the XWindows depends on multi-user and the multi-user
normally depends on network/service. I think if there is no DHCP or the network/
service would not start up correctly, the X/gdm service will never start up. In
the
mean time, the booting process is hidden behind the "splashimage" of GRUB.
The result is users never could access to console and they might confuse why the
OS could not boot up as I hit in xVM machine this time. So it might be good not
show
splashimage on GRUB when trying to boot.
As following:
################################
svc:/network/service:default (layered network services)
State: offline since Wed Nov 05 09:38:33 2008
Reason: Start method is running. <---- The service is running here, not
never done in a very long time(a few hours on my xVM now)
See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-C4
See: man -M /usr/share/man -s 1M ifconfig
See: /var/svc/log/network-service: default.log
Impact: 7 dependent services are not running:
svc:/network/smtp:sendmail
svc:/milestone/multi-user:default
......
svc:/application/graphical-login/gdm:default:
......
################################
After I manual set IP Address, the X/gdm service start correctly
and the whole OS could work as expected, too.
I attached the install_log which seems to be OK from my points of view.
Thanks
Jason
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

Forgot to mention, the build is based on snv_100a.
And I installed the virtual machine on X4200 M2 with 2G RAM
and 34G disk which is a large file.
Thanks

Hi, All
I pulled over the 1031 nightly image from indiana-build.central.
And I tried to install it on xVM virtual machine through HVM mode.
The installation process is quite well, but after installation,
when>> the GUI or X try to start, it shows a slider which is never
end, and it
is to say, the GUI desktop could never start. As the screen picture
in attachment. So far, it is about 14 hours after installation, the
desktop still could not start.
I am not sure what it try to do when GUI or X start, and I guess
it is
trying to get DHCP address. But in our test environment, the

DHCP server.
On real machine, the slider process after installation is also

on Lenovo
T61 laptop.
Any suggestion, please?
Great Thanks
Jason
