I have a PC that in strict terms used to be a Compaq Presario 5000, but has been upgraded over time to an Athlon 2800 and 1GB of RAM but still has an ancient Compaq IDE DVD-ROM. I also have a Solaris Express Developer Edition 2/07 DVD.
The DVD boots and I get the grub boot info. Regardless of what I select and which installation type I choose, I inevitably end up with the following text: "hsfs mount: /dev/dsk/c2t1d0p0 is not an hsfs file system." Depending on which option I select, I also get other text about only installing from a DVD, or picking just "Solaris Express" rather than "Solaris Express, Developer Edition". In the end, the install dies here with the hsfs mount question. I've tried the "atapi-cd-dma-enabled=1" fix, but that seems to have no effect. Anyone with a similar experience or some advice?
