see the command options.

Code:

ORADIM -EDIT -SID <sid name> -SHUTMODE immediate

ORADIM -EDIT -SRVC <srvc name> -SHUTMODE immediate

No windows on this laptop, Just Linux and a copy of Solaris 11.2 that is sitting dormant right now.

When I installed it. It took completely over the system. the grub they used made user of that. Unknown to me they are just like Windows in the "its only me" way of life when it comes to using there system. (even though one has to jump through hoops to get it to dual boot)

The HDD on this laptop is ext4 format other then what Solaris made its partition.

Right now I am using Linux on here, with Solaris not being used or in any kind of set up to be used. until I find time to mess with that Grub thing and figure out how to boot into Linux too with it. Grub2 makes things harder too in my option as I my knowledge base about these things is still in a learning pattern.

As far as Solaris shutting down it is like a fresh install on a bare system. So what it did to make it put itself into a wait state or what ever it is in because I cannot see a screen telling me what it is really doing just that splash shutdown screen with the red line that hangs when it gets to a point about 10 to 20 % LEFT TO DO.

I did notice it takes for ever to boot up too, Linux is much faster. Even Windows I fear is faster at boot up time and shut down time even than Solaris is.

I'll look in to this when I find time again.

thanks for your help...

installgrub

installgrub(1M) 														   installgrub(1M)

NAME

       installgrub - install GRUB in a disk partition or a floppy

SYNOPSIS

       /sbin/installgrub [-fm] stage1 stage2 raw-device

       The installgrub command is an -only program. GRUB stands for GRand Unified Bootloader.

       installgrub  installs  GRUB  stage  1  and  stage  2  files on the boot area of a disk partition. If you specify the -m option, installgrub
       installs the stage 1 file on the master boot sector of the disk.

       The installgrub command accepts the following options:

       -f

	   Suppresses interaction when overwriting the master boot sector.

       -m

	   Installs GRUB stage1 on the master boot sector interactively.

       The installgrub command accepts the following operands:

       stage1

	   The name of the GRUB stage 1 file.

       stage2

	   The name of the GRUB stage 2 file.

       raw-device

	   The name of the device onto which GRUB code is to be installed. It must be a character device that is readable and writable.  For  disk
	   devices,  specify  the  slice  where  the  GRUB  menu  file	is  located.  (For Solaris it is the root slice.) For a floppy disk, it is
	   /dev/rdiskette.

       Example 1: Installing GRUB on a Hard Disk Slice

       The following command installs GRUB on a system where the root slice is c0d0s0:

       example# /sbin/installgrub /boot/grub/stage1 
		/boot/grub/stage2 /dev/rdsk/c0d0s0

       Example 2: Installing GRUB on a Floppy

       The following command installs GRUB on a formatted floppy:

       example# mount -F pcfs /dev/diskette /mnt
       # mkdir -p /mnt/boot/grub
       # cp /boot/grub/* /mnt/boot/grub
       # umount /mnt
       # cd /boot/grub
       # /sbin/installgrub stage1 stage2 /dev/rdiskette

       /boot/grub

	   Directory where GRUB files reside.

       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |      ATTRIBUTE TYPE	     |	    ATTRIBUTE VALUE	   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |Availability		     |SUNWcsu			   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |Interface Stability	     |Evolving			   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+

       boot(1M), fdisk(1M), fmthard(1M), kernel(1M), attributes(5)

       Installing GRUB on the master boot sector (-m option) overrides any boot manager currently installed on the machine. The system will always
       boot the GRUB in the Solaris partition regardless of which fdisk partition is active.
