Sigh, 

  Was the old HD you had also  connected    to  the SATA  controller   

     OR  

 Was the old HD  you had  connected  to  an IDE/ATA   connector  with a flat 
Ribbon cable ? 


   If the SATA  controller is unknown  to solaris we need to find out what its 
. 
   If you had Solaris working  ON THE SAME SATA2 controller with the old HD 
   the problem is something else. 


   SOlaris  is booted  and the code rolled into memory by the boot loader  via 
  emulated  IDE functions. 
 
     Then Solaris kernel is  taking  control  of the disks.  and if the  SATA 
    controller you are using is unknown the boot up process could/will stall.
