Well, I'm using the latest openSolaris.....and since I can no longer boot 
ANYTHING, I can't add -k to the boot options.

I'm looking for help to get my system running again.... and I'm insulted that 
you would think it's just "a gripe email"!!

Something was drastically changed by my installing openSolaris which prevents 
me from successfully installing ANYTHING else!

There is nothing between the lines in what I originally posted.? I'm looking 
for help to restore my laptop to something other than?the paperweight that 
openSolaris created?and your comment is not appreciated!

You might try booting into kmdb in this situation (add -k to your boot
options).  And/or booting -m milestone=none and seeing if something
happening in userland is triggering the problem by them bringing
things up one at a time.

Since you didn't even tell us what build you were using, there's not
much we can do other than suggest broad debugging strategies.  If this
was just a gripe mail, please ignore my message.
