Greetings everyone,
After a long time away from OpenIndiana, I have tried to come back,
however I can only run OI in a virtual machine now. This is not ideal
and I want to run OI natively. I really *really* want to run OI on my
bare metal, but it just hangs after the copyright and before the SMF
start stage.
I tried getting some advice from the OI IRC channel, but the folks who
were responding didn't understand my issue. I cannot get to the
Device Driver Utility to generate a report because OI doesn't boot all
the way.
Hi Will,
besides what Till suggests wrt ACPI, try booting from DVD, if you
booted from USB (or vice versa). If you booted from USB 3 port (xHCI)
try USB 2 (EHCI) one, if you used USB 3 flash key, try USB 2 one.
You are trying the latest hipster snapshot, right? You say OpenIndiana
worked on the system before? Does it really hang so that cursor is not
blinking?
Have a look at http://illumos.org/hcl/ and see what component may not
be supported and try to turn them off in BIOS.

Hi Michal,
Thanks for that information. I have actually tried disabling ACPI and
also did the USB 2 port tricks, but still the result is the same. I did
not see anything on-list from Till, is this a website or resource on the
OpenIndiana site?
Obviously some part of my hardware is unsupported. Is there some place
I can submit my hardware information and they will add support for it in
the kernel?
Thank you! :)
