I think you have to tell your system's bios to boot from HDD#2, at least until you manually construct a grub boot entry on your regular S10 HDD#1 disk, that is able to boot opensolaris from HDD#2. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list [email protected]
