[indiana-discuss] image-update from 91 to 100: new BE hangs on boot, old BE panicks on boot

[Haik Aftandilian]

Upgraded from build 91 to build 100 last night by following the instructions at

http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/opensolaris-announce/2008-July/001860.html

Afterwards, when trying to boot the new build 100 BE, I see the "Use is subject to license terms" boot message and then a message from the NVIDIA driver telling me that my card will be ignored because it is not supported and that it will keep probing. I do have an older card that requires the legacy drivers. After that message, the boot hangs.

I tried to boot back into my build 91 BE and the system panicks on boot because it fails to mount the root pool. The panic message is along the lines of "this pool was last accessed by a machine with a different hostid".

I've burned a DVD of the 2008.11 build 100a ISO so I can boot from it and try and force mount the root pool (with the hope that that will fix the build 91 boot panic).

Is this a known bug? My searches haven't turned up anything.

Thanks,
Haik
