Hi, I have had very similar problems on my machine as well. In the end, it even froze or "rebooted" during the actual boot process. How much memory do you have installed in your machine? I had those random reboots when there were 8GB in my machine. During some cleaning of the whole cooling system (I use a water-cooling for my server) I accidentally broke two memory blocks and was left with 4GB. The reboot did not occur that often anymore.
Recently, I have upgraded my server to 32GB memory and Solaris didn't work at all anymore on this machine. Those very random freezes already occured during the installation process... I somehow managed to get a version of opensolaris installed, but it never started, because freezes were now happening throughout the boot process. I even tried to debug the boot process with the kernel debugger, but to no avail. I couldn't pin-point what was happening. I am very sure that it's not my memory or any other hardware problem, since I now put a Linux on my machine (with ZFS on FUSE to access my data) which runs extremely stable. I have posted a thread about this problem here: http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=104243&tstart=105 -- you might want to read the posts from user jkeil which were very helpful to me, but finally I didn't manage to resolve the problem. :-( Good luck, and please let me know if you solved your problems and if they were in any way related to my problems. I would like to change back to Solaris a.s.a.p. but right now it's very useless to me. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
