Hi, When I installed Open Solaris (X86 platform) i created a separate /boot partition. When I booted the system I was left at grub> prompt . I loaded the kernel and modules manually and booted here.
After booting I noticed that all the required boot files were in the [i]/boot[/i] [b]partition[/b] whereas the [i]/boot[/i] [b]folder[/b] in the [i]/[/i] [b]partition[/b] was empty. So I copied all the files in the /boot partition to /boot folder in / partition and grub started working properly ....Open Solaris now booted automatically. Why did this happen? Does grub in Open Solaris doesn't read from a separate /boot partition ( It does so in Linux!!) ? Any details related to this will be very helpful .
