So to be clear, you: 1) Installed Solaris 2) Repartitioned 3) Then couldn't boot If so, this is likely because your partition numbering scheme changed and so GRUB can't find the root partition anymore to read the menu.lst from (possibly). You will likely need to reinstall GRUB and fix the configuration, or reinstall Solaris if you haven't already. If you have already reinstalled Solaris after repartitioning, I don't know why you are having the issue still. -- Shawn Walker, Software and Systems Analyst [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://binarycrusader.blogspot.com/ "Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct, not tried it.
