Operating Systems Solaris Server disk issue need help Post 302792551 by RyanV on Wednesday 10th of April 2013 03:20:41 PM

I dont think there is any output at this point. It boots up and gets to the banner screen where it hangs and the prompt never comes up.

Is there an interup?during the boot where I can stop it and try some diagnostic tool or chdsk?


Thanks!
