OK -- I have booted from the 2008.11 release Live image.  It booted up just 
fine, but doesn't see the 1.5TB drive at all.  Under Solaris 10 10/08, the 
drive will show up and I can use space under 1TB, but with OpenSolaris 2008.11 
the drive fails to register at all.

When I run format, it just says:
Searching for disks...done
No disks found!

Syslog shows the following from when the system booted, so it looks like the 
system could see the drive:

Dec 22 20:06:10 opensolaris genunix: [ID 640982 kern.info]      IDE device at 
targ 0, lun 0 lastlun 0x0

'Gen-ATA ' Product 'ST31500341AS    '>

If I go into the /devices directory and try to find the actual block and 
character devices, the tree stops at:
/devices/p...@0,0/pci-...@f/i...@0
...meaning that there are no directories below this point:

# ls -lR /devices/p...@0,0/pci-...@f
.:
total 1
drwxr-xr-x 2 root sys    512 Dec 22 20:06 i...@0
crw------- 1 root sys 258, 0 Dec 22 20:09 i...@0:control

./i...@0:
total 0

Any ideas here?  I would have at least expected the drive to show up as it does 
in 10/08 -- even if I couldn't use the whole thing.

Thanks to all in advance,
-Michael
