Hello Amit,

  I've had to do the svcadm clear nwam trick on my Ultra 20. The boot 
automatically resumed though. The first time it did, I wasn't expecting 
it and had enabled gdm which resulted in two sessions which worked 
poorly. I had to restart the machine to regain control. When I just did 
the clear and let OpenSolaris do the rest it worked fine. It did take a 
while to start X though. I have a Nvidia Quadro FX 3450 in this machine 
and it works fine with 107.

Regards,
  Greg
