Really didn't know what to do, so I proceeded with the installati on anyway. The end results are: (1) the screen was instantly locked during booting when nv23 moved into GUI mode (i.e., right before the login screen); and (2) my XP partition was corrupted (was ab le to boot, with GRUB, into the Windows partition, but XP won't start). ATI graphics, perhaps? How did you boot with grub? You will need to use "chainloader". >(1) How do I update Solaris 10 software?

The installation scripts really only care about ethernet, disk and the console (graphics, keyboard, mouse) Casper _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
