I guess you probably switch the disk label from a SMI to EFI one with your BSD experiments. You need to switch it back to SMI with "format -e" command.

Also, instead of Solaris 9 which is quite outdated, you might want to try installing the latest OpenSolaris release (textinstall-134-sparc.iso from Index of /isos/opensolaris) on that box. It fits on a CD so doesn't require a DVD.

NAME

       gnome-interfaces - GNOME interface classifications

DESCRIPTION

       This  page describes the interface classifications for items shipped with the GNOME desktop. For the definitions of the interface classifi-
       cations, see attributes(5).

       Those wishing to integrate with the GNOME desktop are recommended to depend on interfaces marked as Committed.  These interfaces  will  not
       break  after  upgrade.	The  set  of  Committed interfaces is a subset of the GNOME Platform libraries (plus additional interfaces such as
       FreeDesktop interfaces and pkg-config).

       Sun believes that the list of Committed interfaces is suitable for writing a great GTK+	based  application.   Examples	of  programs  that
       depend only on these interfaces include: GIMP, Firefox, Thunderbird, RealPlayer, and Adobe Reader.

       Note  that  when  you  build  software, any configure script may use the pkg-config to identify what libraries are installed to the system.
       Solaris includes pc files for non-Committed interfaces in /usr/lib/pkgconfig, so be aware of the commitment level of any  dependencies  you
       may be using.  Some such dependencies are optional and configure options can disable them.  It is recommended that non-Committed interfaces
       are not enabled if you require stability.

       GNOME Platform libraries have an API/ABI stability guarantee from the external GNOME community.	While it is  unlikely  that  non-Committed
       interfaces  in the GNOME Platform would break after upgrade, Sun makes no guarantee that these interfaces have any stability.  Refer to the
       GNOME community for a list of Platform libraries for the version of GNOME being used.  Use non-Committed interfaces at your own risk.

       GNOME Desktop interfaces have no stability guarantee and are intended only for use for programs provided by the GNOME community.   Xiph.org
       interfaces also have no stability guarantee.

       Instructions  on  how  to  integrate  with  the GNOME panel menu, the MIME database, and icon integration are discussed in the GNOME System
       Administration Guide.

       You must install the GNOME development packages for access to developer applications and API documentation.  API  documentation	for  GNOME
       interfaces can be found in related manpages and the API documentation installed to /usr/share/gtk-doc in HTML format.

       To  do  new  development  work with the latest GNOME code, consider using the latest version of OpenSolaris which you can download from the
       OpenSolaris website:

       http://www.opensolaris.org/

       Refer to the Java Desktop System project at OpenSolaris.org for instructions on how to build GNOME based applications on  Solaris.   It	is
       recommended that you use the JDS Common Build Environment (CBE) that you can find at the project website, the first link below.	The second
       link provides access to the latest GNOME development packages which can be used with recent OpenSolaris builds to replace the desktop  with
       an unstable but most modern version, if desired.

       http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/jds/ http://dlc.sun.com/osol/jds/downloads/current/

       To contact the desktop team at Sun send an email to desktop-discuss@opensolaris.org.

       The interfaces listed below ship with API documentation.  Refer to the specific manpage for details.  GNOME interfaces which are not listed
       in the table below should be considered Volatile, even if the interfaces have gtk-docs installed in /usr/share/gtk-doc.	Interfaces in Com-
       mitted libraries that are not documented in the man page or referenced gtk-doc API documentation should be considered Volatile.
