Somehow processes / threads seem to get stuck on your system and all sorts of services get timeouts. hal has a 250 second startup timeout, and apparently this timeout triggers because hal startup is hanging. The dmesg output contained hints on such hangs, too, e.g. a six minute pause (?) between 11:07:31 and 11:13:38. I suspect something basic is broken with OpenSolaris on this system - timers, or interrupt handling, or some driver that is misbehaving. What cpu is used on this system? Would it help to force booting the 32-bit kernel instead of 64-bit? How much memory is installed? Would it help to reduce the amount of memory to less than 4GB? Would it help to boot in uppc mode instead of pcplusmp mode? To disable pcplusmp: - boot with kernel debugger, using options " -kdv" - in kmdb psm_install:b :c apic_forceload/W -1 :c -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
