Yes, I see both the optical device and the s-ata hdd, both on
pci-ide controllers:
pci-ide, instance #0 (driver name: pci-ide)
ide, instance #0 (driver name: ata)
sd, instance #0 (driver name: sd)
ide (driver name: ata)
pci-ide, instance #1 (driver name: pci-ide)
ide, instance #2 (driver name: ata)
cmdk, instance #0 (driver name: cmdk)
ide (driver name: ata)
snv_34 should already contain the SATA framework, but it doesn't
have support for Intel AHCI SATA ? But the SATA HDD is apparently
detected as a PATA legacy device....

The Mac USB keyboard works fine, as soon as the Solaris kernel and the
uhci driver is loaded.

Hmm, the Solaris kernel sees the disk as c1d1
It seems the S-x86 ata driver is trying to use the EFI label on the
HDD, prtvtoc reports this:
* /dev/rdsk/c1d1s0 partition map
*
* Dimensions:
* 512 bytes/sector
* 488396160 sectors
* 488397101 accessible sectors
*
* Flags:
* 1: unmountable
* 10: read-only
*
* Unallocated space:
* First Sector Last
* Sector Count Sector
* 34 6 39
* 409640 100663296 101072935
* 164062501 324334633 488397133
*
* First Sector Last
* Partition Tag Flags Sector Count Sector Mount Directory
0 12 00 40 409600 409639
2 17 00 101072936 62989565 164062500
s0 is the EFI system partition. s2 is a Windows XP partition.
AFAICT, the EFI s1 partition is missing, it should contain the
Mac HFS+ volume. Maybe a bug in the Solaris ata driver,
when using EFI disk labels?
I'd expect that the standard Solaris x86 install software will produce
a nice mess on this EFI (& FDISK) partitioned HDD. :-)
