Greetings,
With recent uprade to snv_109 I can't get past the boot
splash screen with orange progress going side to side.
Is there a way to toggle and/or disable it?
Edit the grub boot entry at boot time as shown here:
http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=4762
Once it starts and you have a text login, you can make that
permanent by editing /rpool/boot/grub/menu.lst
I am running my solaris "box" under VirtualBox on a Mac.
Thank you,

#1 Remove the 3 lines:
-------------------------------------
splashimage /boot/solaris.xpm
foreground d25f00
background 115d93
#2 Remove ,console=graphics from the end of the kernel$ line
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
e.g.:
Change From:
kernel$ /platform/i86pc/kernel/$ISADIR/unix -B $ZFS-BOOTFS,console=graphics
To:
kernel$ /platform/i86pc/kernel/$ISADIR/unix -B $ZFS-BOOTFS
An example segment from my /rpool/boot/grub/menu.lst file is below.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# BE opensolaris-3 with boot splash screen
title opensolaris-3
findroot (pool_rpool,0,a)
splashimage /boot/solaris.xpm
foreground d25f00
background 115d93
bootfs rpool/ROOT/opensolaris-3
kernel$ /platform/i86pc/kernel/$ISADIR/unix -B $ZFS-BOOTFS,console=graphics
module$ /platform/i86pc/$ISADIR/boot_archive
# BE opensolaris-3 without the boot splash screen
title opensolaris-3 text boot
findroot (pool_rpool,0,a)
bootfs rpool/ROOT/opensolaris-3
kernel$ /platform/i86pc/kernel/$ISADIR/unix -B $ZFS-BOOTFS
module$ /platform/i86pc/$ISADIR/boot_archive
