Looking at your command, I don't think it complains about solaris.disk. I think it complains about the iso, which is normal given that we make iso image pretend it's a hard drive. But why do you boot from the slice d of disk0 ? Please try boot disk0 -v and post here a complete log afterwards. > Thks for your help Artyom.
