So it hangs after detecting an usb (console) keyboard. This could be some problem with the bios' "usb keyboard legacy emulation" - the bios should stop the emulation of a ps/2 legacy keyboard as soon as an operating system usb drivers control the usb keyboard. Is there a bios setup option to enable / disable "usb keyboard legacy emulation"? Btw. when booted with options " -kv" and it hangs after "keyboard at 0 (hid 2) online", is it possible to break into kmdb by pressing "F1 + a" (press F1 key, followed by "a" while still holding down F1)? If this enters kmdb, what stack backtrace is reported by the kmdb ::stack command? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
