I eventually solved the problem - devalias gave me the info that the last line was the mouse, so I plugged a standard keyboard & mouse in and hey presto, successful boot.
What I don't understand is why a system that had been happily booting with just a serial console and no keyboard for a year or so, would suddenly stop. Now I can't use the serial console, which is a pain as I don't have a monitor connected. The only change was that I took the lid off and added some ram. Taking it out again didn't solve the problem - possibly I disturbed something whilst installing it??? Any thoughts anyone?

It seems to hang at internal loopback test, if I do a test-all. The output from boot -v follows below. It hangs at the second su1 line. A break will usually get me back to the ok prompt (I'm using a serial console). If it is hung at loopback, break won't work. Also it hangs on probe-pci (but output from probe-ide is fine). su1 is /[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/[EMAIL PROTECTED],1/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],3062f8 _______________________________________________ Solaris-Users mailing list [email protected] http://www.filibeto.org/mailman/listinfo/solaris-users
