Hi everyone,
when I tried booting OpenSolaris in VirtualBox 1.5.2, it failed by some
VirtualBox error not too long after the booting starts. Then I burned
the ISO and bootet it from my real computer and after I have set the
keyboard layout to "13" which means German, there is flickering. I guess
that it tries to start the X Server. After three flickerings, nothing
happens and I am in still in the text console and am asked for the
OpenSolaris username and password which I don't know. System specs:
ASUS A8R-MVP, S939
AMD Athlon 64 3500+
AMD Radeon X1900 XT 512
2048 MB Kingston DDR400
Can anyone help me? Maybe, if I would have the username and password, I
could log on and edit the Xorg.conf file if it is set incorrectly. What
other things could I try? I am really looking forward to OpenSolaris, so
I am sad that it doesn't work at the moment.
