Re: Solaris 11 install freeze

970466Oct 24 2012 — edited Nov 8 2012

Hello,

I am experincing issue with solaris 11-1111. I am trying to install on an HP elitebook 8770w with intel i7 processor with dual 750gb dirves /dev/sda & /dev/sdb. the configuration is for a dual boot windows and Solaris. I Don't want to run solaris in parrallels (that will just be funky)

The installs both LiveCD and text .iso hang after the SunOS copyright display with message probing device nodes -- remounting root r/w. I have tried several edits to Grub command lines with with -B install_media=/dev/sr0 etc. with no luck.

Any ideas how to get past this problem.

There is nothing wrong with the hardward. I was able to install Solaris 10 on a similarly configured hardware. I want to upgrade all the solaris 10 boxes to solaris 11

Any suggestions will be appreciated.
I
