Try running the manufacture disk utility to run a low level format verify all 
the cylinders are good, repartition the disk with Solaris fdisk dvd in shell 
command like under single user mode or when you run the Solaris installer on 
the dvd and select initial install with custom options and leave 8meg free 
unused partition space are using the whole disk for Solaris2 under fdisk or if 
sharing with windows for example windows fdisk as a default install for fat32 
or ntfs partition also leaves about 8meg free for cylinder rounding errors and 
EFI label space at the end of the physical disk as you should for Solaris2 
fdisk partition as well. 

Also when you get to the Solaris installer format to divvy up the slices within 
the Solaris2 fdisk partition you do not want neg numbers rounding errors, this 
causes these types of errors that the 6650131 talks about.
