Hi Gurus,

I already posted this questions on opensolaris-discuss alias, but someone 
points it to me that it should be install-discuss alias for this issue.  
Apology if you have to read it twice.

*************
I'm trying to configure my laptop as dual boot (window xp and sol 10 1/06). I 
window on a 1st partition (20GB) without any problems; however, when I try 
installing sol 10 onto the rest of the disk, I can't use a default interactive 
install because everytime it checks a resolution, it's just hung. So, I'm 
forced to use a text version which is fine with me. However, after the 
installation completes & reboots, it comes back with 3 selections: sol 10 
x86....., sol 10 failback safe, and window. If I choose the 1st selection, it 
just resets the screen & comes right back to the menu. If I selects 2nd 
selection, it brings me over to a single user mode with rootdisk is mounted on 
/tmp/root. I verify the /a/etc/vfstab file and all of the entries looks normal 
to me, but I can't boot it up to multi user mode. So, my question is that does 
anyone install sol 10 1/06 x86 on Dell Latitude D820 before and get it to work? 
Please help.

Thx,
-Chris
