Hi Sanjay, As was pointed out to me the default grub entry is the platform entry added at install time. So, only 1 entry is added. That said, there is nothing that implies we have to leave it this way for Indiana. I personally like having the 32-bit mode available to me after install. Adding it manually isn't hard, it just may not be obvious to newer OpenSolaris users.
