cannot open/stat device

Good day to all.

I'm trying to install Solaris 10 (11/06) on my pentium D box. I have 1 SATA hdd (primary master) and 1 DVD-RW drive. The hdd have 2 primary partitions - 1st - win-xp, ntfs, 2nd - for Solaris OS and 1 logical partition. During installation process I have an error - installboot failed - failed to install boot block.
After that I boot in single user shell disagreed to mount found solaris partition on /a and entered command - /sbin/installgrub stage1 stage2 /dev/dsk/c1d0s0 and got an error - cannot open/stat device /dev/dsk/c1d0s2
I don't understand why installgrub trying to use c1d0s2 instead of c1d0s0?
By the way, mount /dev/dsk/c1d0s0 /a works fine.
Pls help!
