Andrew, Apologies for the delay. I was under an impression that I am not able to install OpenSolaris because I have less RAM capacity, 512MB. So tried to install OpenSolaris 2008.05_x86 after adding another 512MB RAM. However, the result this time around was the same.
So I tried installing OpenSolaris on another system with a different chipset config and is installed fine. Here is the output of 'scanpci' on the machine in which OpenSolaris didn't install, ---CUT--- pci bus 0x0000 cardnum 0x00 function 0x00: vendor 0x1106 device 0x0314 VIA Technologies, Inc.
