Solaris 10 installation problem on IBM Thinkpad - T43

807557Nov 8 2006 — edited Nov 12 2006

Dear All,

I have a major problem while installing Solaris 10 on my IBM T43 Laptop. Here is my problem:

- I boot from Solaris 10 DVD
- I select the option "Solaris" from the grub menu
- I get 6 installation options
1. Solaris interactive(Default)
2. Custom jumpstart
3. Solaris interactive text(desktop session)
4. Solaris interactive console
5. Driver update
6. Single user shell
- I select option 1(solaris interactive)
- After some processing, I get the "proposed configuration" screen, and an option to accept/reject it.
- I reject the proposed configuration and, as a result enter the "kdmconfig" wizard.
- After this screen, I tried selecting various resolutions, but no matter, I get a blank screen in place of the graphical installation wizard after quitting kdmconfig.

As a result, I am never given a chance to install solaris at all. Can anyone you please dig me out of this hole?

Regards,
Thejasvi V
