I'm a total newb myself, however if you can't boot it from the CD then I'm guessing your hardware isn't supported. Although you can take my opinion with a grain of salt.
I also noticed that when I installed it on my Macbook Pro, it had to be installed on the first available partition (which is actually the second partition as the first is reserved for Mac OS X boot something or rather). I had to change the id of the first partition to AF which - as I understand - openSolaris does't recognise. If I tried on one of the other partitions, the installer would fail with a fdisk error. Or if I installed it on the first av. partition and then created another partition in front of that, or gave the first Mac parition an id that OS can recognise (like EE) then it wouldn't boot. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
