Operating Systems Solaris Solaris10(x86) display goes blank Post 302899557 by Solaris_Begin on Wednesday 30th of April 2014 02:32:04 AM

Solaris10(x86) display goes blank

Hi all,
Installed Solaris10(1/13) on a normal Lenovo Thinkcenter desktop. The installation could proceed only in text mode (4).

Install is success, but not able to get the login window after the grub screen. The screen goes blank. (as was the case when selecting desktop mode during installation). I havent configured a network and hence unable to take remote session using ssh.

Any pointers on correcting this issue?

Read about changing the grub properties, bootenv.rc file but I havent got a clear idea on changing them.

(Used a Sun Microsystems display for install)

Thanks in advance.
