I am trying to get OpenSolaris 2009.06 to run from my 32 GB Kingston
compact flash drive attached to a standard Sil 0680 IDE controller.  The
installer detects the card and install successfully.  Upon reboot, GRUB
drops to a "grub>" prompt.  Any attempts to read menu.lst fail with:

grub> root (hd0,0,a)
Filesystem type is zfs ...
grub> find /rpool/boot/grub/menu.lst
zio_read_data failed
Error 15: File not found


However, I have no problem importing/mounting rpool from the livecd and
it scrubs fine:

# zpool status
  pool: rpool
 state: ONLINE
 scrub: scrub completed after 0h20m with 0 errors on Thu Jun  4 03:48:38 2009
config:

        NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM

          c7d0s0    ONLINE       0     0     0

errors: No known data errors


Here's the zdb output if it helps:

Any idea why this would fail in GRUB but work when booted from a livecd?
 Thanks.

With rpool imported/mounted can you cat the contents of the GRUB menu.lst file? What does it contain?

e.g.: % cat /rpool/boot/grub/menu.lst

This question should probably be posted to [email protected]
