I am also not sure if cron is generally required to pass requests through a shell (rather than execute verbatim lines), and which one.

Hello, OI community. I'm new to the OI environment. I am performing an OI installation on an Intel NUC D54250WYKH. I have previously booted and installed SmartOS on this NUC, having started several zones. However, I really need the graphical desktop environment and wanted to explore OpenIndiana. I have created my USB boot drive for OI and have started the installation process. I get through the first text queries and the display turns a few solid colors and then essentially hangs on the green colored background screen. Any thoughts on what is happening?
