Try the more recent development release, osol-dev-134-x86.iso http://www.genunix.org/distributions/indiana/osol-dev-134-x86.iso In case it is crashing, try to start the kernel with options "-kv"; edit the grub boot entry and add options "-kv" at the end of the kernel$ grub boot line. That should allow you to read the kernel panic messages... -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org
