[indiana-discuss] OpenSolaris 200811 nightly image of Oct.31 could not stop slider after installation on xVM virtual machine

[Jason Zhao]

Hi, All


I pulled over the 1031 nightly image from indiana-build.central.
And I tried to install it on xVM virtual machine through HVM mode.
The installation process is quite well, but after installation, when
the GUI or X try to start, it shows a slider which is never end, and it
is to say, the GUI desktop could never start. As the screen picture
in attachment. So far, it is about 14 hours after installation, the
desktop still could not start.

I am not sure what it try to do when GUI or X start, and I guess it is
trying to get DHCP address. But in our test environment, the machine
could not be dispatched an IP address automatically by DHCP server.

On real machine, the slider process after installation is also quite
long in our test environment. It is about 15 minutes in all on Lenovo
T61 laptop.

Any suggestion, please?

Great Thanks
Jason
