Michael:

Does the x86 Solaris 11 express livecd works on the ibm x3655 ???

If the Text Install fails, you can try to boot kmdb and get more information. Might be good to get a digital camera to take some photos of the kmdb:
 debug hang:

Pls boot with '-B console=ttya,kbm_debug=1 -kdv', at the debugger:
[0]> prom_debug/W 1
[0]> moddebug/W 0x80000000
[0]> :c

The LSI controller has long been supported in Solaris via the MPT driver.

Unfortunately, the x86 Solaris 11 express text installation disc fails to run. The installation 
seems to hang at "Probing for device nodes ..." Booting the system with GRUB boot menu 
additions "-kv" produces the following output:

stmf_sbd0 is /pseudo/stmf_...@0
PCI Express-device: pci1166,1...@a, pcieb0
pcieb0 is /p...@0,0/pci1166,1...@a

pci0 at root: space 3a offset 0
pci0 is /p...@3a,0

Remounting read/write
Probing for device nodes ...

Was support for my controller dropped and is that what's causing installation 
to fail, or is something else going on? What else can I do to get information 
about the problem from the installation program? Thanks.
