I am performing this installation on a Sun T5220. There is an aftermarket Adaptec StorageTek raid controller card installed. I have created the raid array, and it is referred to as c1t0d0. Here is the profile I have created:
After this, the install proceeds without too much problem. After the install reboots the server, I receive the following messages:

I have rebooted to the OS install cd and run fsck, and there are no errors.
Here's my vfstab file:

When i try to remount using
Code:

I receive an error stating:
That /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s0 is not ufs. Except it is ufs!
I'm kind of lost. Any suggestions? This is a new system so I'm strongly considering just nuking the install and trying again.
what kind of raid adapter are you using? i need the part number. certain controller need a newer version of solaris for driver support... if an older solaris version is used, you need to patch the driver into the minikernel...
The minimum Solaris operating system is Solaris 10 5/08 (SPARC) or Solaris 10 8/07 (x86).
so your solaris version should be ok. my first try would be a clean install from DVD and check if everything is ok. if this works, it should be a jumpstart (wrong config...) problem.
also make sure this is true:
