Kyle and Keith:
Besides the /tmp/install_log, can you also include the /var/adm/messages
?? We want to see whether there is any error from the disk.
It will be helpful to have prtconf -vp output also.

Hi Kyle,
The log files under /tmp after the install completes (/tmp/install_log,
etc.) would give additional clues, if you can provide them.
Here is the install_log from the text installer:

I'm re-trying the text install now.
Also I'm waiting for the AI install to re-run. I'll make sure I get that
log file this time too.
-Kyle
Additionally, more information on which types of machines you're
installing into would be valuable.
For the Text Installer failure, more details about the bootadm
update-archive failure would be useful - at what point in the process
did the failure occur, and when did you manually re-execute it?
In the AI case, since you can temporarily get console access, you could
manually modify /etc/ttydefs after install, but prior to rebooting, and
see if that helps:
# Login as root, pw: opensolaris
beadm mount opensolaris /a
vi /a/etc/ttydefs # edit as needed
beadm unmount opensolaris
reboot

Hi all,
I've been trying to install OpenSolaris on 2 headless servers.
To do this I've tired both the b134 AI, and b134 Text installer media
images.
Niether have been successful.
The Text installer image appears to complete the install, but one of the
attempts to run 'bootadm update-archive' failed. A later execution of
bootadm passed though, and I verified that the boot_archive existed
before rebooting.
This install will only boot to a grub prompt. I'm not familiar enough
with the grub command set to attempt to boot or debug further from this
prompt.
The AI media boots, but all of my attempts to use a serial console at
115200 have failed. I can get the grub and kernel to use that speed, but
I have no way of updating the /etc/ttydefs file so that the login prompt
is redirected to ttya.
I have been able to initate the AI install, and monitor it using a VGA
monitor and keyboard I connected temporarily. The install complete, and
claimed it was successfull. However all I see at boot is the ... from
grub loading the kernel, and nothing further (on the serail or VGA
consoles)
Am I doing something wrong?
Are there any known bugs around this?
What other info can I collect to help resolve this?
-Kyle
