Hi,
I have installed Open Solaris on Sun x86 servers without any trouble. However,
when I use the same DVD to install it on Desktop, I get an error.
After selecting Solaris [b]interactive install[/b] from the List of install
options, the install hangs up and I can see the following text on screen,
---CUT---
Cannot Create /var/dt/sdtlogin directory for display manager pipe: No such file
or directory
X Window System Version 1.3.0
Release Date: 19 April 2007
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 1.3
Build Operating System: SunOS 5.11 snv_98 i86pc

Before reporting problems check http://sunsolve.sun.com/ to make sure
that you have the latest
version.
Module Loader present

This is where the installation hangs. I have tried the text mode installtion
using console too. The installation completes when I use the text mode using
console. But after installation, when the system reboots, I do not see the
login screen. Instead I just see the login prompt.
What is going wrong?
