The Installer finds all the disk for the user to select onto which one Opensolaris is to be installed. I selected c8d0. Upon reboot, I found grub is not installed onto the specified disk. I felt that it was put onto c9d0.
In general, I found the installer failed to put the bootloader onto the specified disk on my 4-HDD drive system. Furthermore, onto which physical drive the bootloader goes cannot be determined easily. Subsequently, I had reinstall, then to discover grub still presents the old boot menu. Worse still, the same bootloader is shown but one has to dig in to find out what has been booted. Installation is a long process. In my case, I needed many iterations. This un-desirable behaviour of the installer program has costed lots of time. I would like to share this experience with the community. Is there someone who can make this better? Complication arises as there is also a lack of clarity about which disk drive is which. I am under the impression that this is not clear to many users. Can someone correct me if I am wrong? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
