Failed installation of Solaris 8 in SB2000
Deard all, I installed Solaris 8 in a SUN machine, and after Solaris and Language modules installed, the result is that CDE is not working, also single user mode is only available.
I tried with all init stages and the same result.

Can someone advice me what to check (Some log file) or what to try in order not to reinstall Solaris again?

Attached you can find the log from /var/adm/messages file after installation where some failover messages are present.

Txs!

It really just appears that you probably do not have the driver installed for your graphics cards. Many graphics cards require a specific driver that is not included with the default Solaris load. What graphics card is installed?

Cheers,

Keith
