Casper,
I've determined that if I BFU my system:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ uname -a
SunOS orthanc 5.11 opensol-20061030 i86pc i386 i86pc
...to opensol-20061103 that I get a kernel panic just after the initial
SunOS copyright notices and then the system reboots.
However, the system reboots so quickly that I can't read what actually
went wrong. Furthermore, when I go back into my system, there's no
obvious core dump or crash file which makes sense to me as I think it's
crashing in a ramdisk before a hard disk is mounted.
Flying by the seat of my pants, I did:
* BFU to 20061103
...then without rebooting:
* BFU to 20061106
...and my machine didn't kernel panic.
I must say that switching from Debian GNU/Linux to Open Solaris has been
an odyssey (I'm experienced with Debian GNU/Linux, Gentoo, RedHat Linux
and FreeBSD) but an odyssey that I've enjoyed.
