If you know the exact script under /etc/rc2.d you can rename it so that it does not begin with an "S", I typically make the S a little s. If your not sure which one it is, as root bring the box down to init state 1
Code:
init 1

Then cd to /etc/rc2.d and start each of the S scripts one at a time like this:
Code:
./S01MOUNTFSYS start
./S05RMTMPFILES start

watch the messages as you start each process and when you get to the one that fails, you have your problem. If your not sure what it is, be sure and ask before you disable it. On a side note, you don't need to get it up to install Solaris 8. Simply put the CD in, press "stop" and "a" at the same time, and from the ok prompt type
Code:
boot cdrom

It will walk you through the rest.

NAME
service - run a System V init script SYNOPSIS
service SCRIPT COMMAND [OPTIONS] service --status-all service --help | -h | --version DESCRIPTION
service runs a System V init script in as predictable an environment as possible, removing most environment variables and with the current working directory set to /. The SCRIPT parameter specifies a System V init script, located in /etc/init.d/SCRIPT. The supported values of COMMAND depend on the invoked script. service passes COMMAND and OPTIONS to the init script unmodified. All scripts should support at least the start and stop commands. As a special case, if COMMAND is --full-restart, the script is run twice, first with the stop command, then with the start com- mand. service --status-all runs all init scripts, in alphabetical order, with the status command. EXIT CODES
service calls the init script and returns the status returned by it. FILES
/etc/init.d The directory containing System V init scripts. ENVIRONMENT
LANG, TERM The only environment variables passed to the init scripts. SEE ALSO
/etc/init.d/skeleton, update-rc.d(8), init(8), invoke-rc.d(8). Jan 2006 service(8)
