If this is the same hang you see with older ON versions, you should be able to
disable IOMMU support the same way by editing the grub boot command line.
BTW: The current goals for Illumos are not primarily to fix left over bugs
from Oracle but to replace closed source by OpenSource. Last night, we made a
big step towards working i18n support - something you did not get from
OpenSolaris as OpenSolaris does not deliver dynamic loadable locale data.
