After booting with verbose output it seemed to stop on the service network/physical:default.
So i booted with manifest=none and turned network/physical:default off with svcadm and then did a reboot -- -r and it booted all the way to graphical desktop!

So the boot problem is identified and kind of solved, but the source problem still remains.

Well in to a properly booted desktop I tried to enable network/physical:default but it just won't seem to start properly.

Output from svcs and log below.

Code:

root@server:~# svcs -x
svc:/network/physical:default (physical network interface configuration)
State: offline* transitioning to online since November 26, 2016 12:39:11 PM CET
Reason: Start method is running.
See: http://support.oracle.com/msg/SMF-8000-C4
See: dladm(1M)
See: ipadm(1M)
See: nwam(5)
See: /var/svc/log/network-physical:default.log
Impact: 13 dependent services are not running. (Use -v for list.)

root@server:~# cat /var/svc/log/network-physical\:default.log
[ Nov 16 20:38:49 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/net-physical start"). ]
[ Nov 16 20:38:49 Timeout override by svc.startd. Using infinite timeout. ]
[ Nov 16 20:39:03 Method "start" exited with status 0. ]

(output shorted a bit, writing by hand)

[ Nov 26 10:18:05 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/net-physical start"). ]
[ Nov 26 10:18:05 Timeout override by svc.startd. Using infinite timeout. ]
[ Nov 26 10:22:50 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/net-physical start"). ]

[ Nov 26 12:39:11 Enabled. ]
[ Nov 26 12:39:11 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/net-physical start"). ]
[ Nov 26 12:39:11 Timeout override by svc.startd. Using infinite timeout. ]

Various outputs below

Code:

root@server:~# dladm
LINK                  CLASS   MTU   STATE    OVER
net0                  phys    1500  unknown  --

transferzone/net0     vnic    1500  up       vboxnet0

root@server:~# ipadm

   lo0/v6     static     ok           --        ::1/128
net0          ip         disabled     --        --
   net0/v4    dhcp       disabled     --        ?
   net0/v6    addrconf   disabled     --        ::

root@server:~# ls /etc/ | grep host
hostid

root@server:~# cat /etc/hostid
# DO NOT EDIT
"_I__45heac"

root@server:~# cat /etc/hostname.vboxnet0
192.168.56.1

I am not really sure what to look for here. The only thing I noticed is that in /etc/ there is no "hostname.net0" the same as .vboxnet0 but I am not sure if there should be such a file or not.
/var/adm/messages does not really say anything either.
Running /lib/svc/method/net-physical start directly from prompt does not result in any output and it just sits there without going anywhere until i press ctrl+c.

Any suggestions?

install-solaris(1M)													       install-solaris(1M)

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris	invokes  the  Solaris  Install	program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       384 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       For x86 machines:

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       512 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number  of  fea-
       tures available.

       install-solaris	exists	only  on  the Solaris installation media (CD or DVD) and should be invoked only from there. Refer to the  for more
       details.

       install-solaris allows installation of the operating system onto any standalone system. install-solaris loads the software available on the
       installation media. Refer to the  for disk space requirements.

       Refer to the  for more information on the various menus and selections.
