Try this:
- In GRUB select one of the "Solaris Express ..." item
- Type 'e' twice
- at the end of the $kernel (or kernel depending on the build) add -kv
- press ENTER
- type 'b'

If the crash occurs after kmdb is loaded you should end up at the kernel 
debugger prompt. If this is the case:

- type '$C'
 a stack backtrace will be displayed.

Here is a link with more info on what can be done in case of a kernel 
hang/crash:
