after the installation of SUN it requires a proper re-boot , which might not have happned - causing improper installation.Smilie

which version and revision of solaris are you using? did you go into the bios to see anything?

Failsafe mode in solaris 10 will bring you to the milestone/single-user:default, similar to sparc, in single user, there will be no network connectivity, applications that startup under rc3 will not be started. Its just a "maintenance" mode
