> I recently installed 4 GB RAM but only see 3 GB. This is normal behavior for most PC-buckets. It's a BIOS issue, where a part of the RAM is allocated for something, nor sure what exactly. It even states so in the manual for some of my systems.
This is not a Solaris issue, as Solaris can easily deal with much much more memory than that. > Should not stand here something with i686 then?

Solaris doesn't have or need "i686", two main ISAs are "i386" for 32-bit and "amd64" for 64-bit (for both AMD and intel). As others have pointed out, use `islist` to see which instruction set architectures are supported by your system. To see the optimal ISA for your system, use optisa `isalist`.
