Luca Morettoni reported a similar behavior (i.e. a perfectly running
system that drops into grub on reboot) on indiana-discuss. I wonder if
the issue is that installgrub is updating the MBR on one disk. If the

You can try to boot from Opensolaris CD, import rpool, mount the root
filesystem and upgrade the grub.

I have a storage server running ZFS which primarily is used for storing

It's hardware related. My two disks where on a SCSI channel that didn't work
