How come?
I'm trying to make tri-system boot to be honest. When I combined Ubuntu and WIndows there was no problem.. It worked well when I combined Solaris and Windows..

I've followed this step but nothing happened.. The Solaris still could be booted.
Should I use OpenSolaris instead of Solaris X86?

Useful for importing removal bugs filed against ftp.debian.org. --no-conf Do not read any configuration files, or configuration from environment variables. ENVIRONMENT
