  skipping system dump – no dump device configured 
  rebooting 

   
  She starts to reboot and never logs into the Solaris environment.
  She gets rebooted again and again

   
   
  We tried to remove the network cable and install the Solaris os 
  Still dint work. Got another interesting warning message
  WARING : pcoex8086, 109a –e1000g[0] :  Eeprom Checksum failed
  WARNING : pciex8086, 109a – e1000g[0]: Eeprom Checksum failed
   
   
  We thought she has some boot issues 
 tried out 
   
  Booting command –list 
  Kernel /boot/multiboot Kernel/unix –B install-medium = cdrom 
  Module /boot/x86.miniroot
   
  And got the following message
  Error 20: multiboot Kernel must be loaded before modules
   
   
   
   
  We Tried to get HELP 
   
  Help : The Load of the help indexes failed No Help is available/
   
   
   
   
   
  WE finally chose NEXENTA [Single User,32 bit] from the solaris DVD 
   
  Still shows the following error message
   
  Unable to mount         /user    on        /livecd/root/usr
  Error:              src:  /system/ file system/usr:default failed to mount  /dev/fd
   
  Default failed fatally transitioned to be maintenanced ( see svc-xv for details)
  Requesting system maintenance mode
   
   
  Root Password for system maintenance (Control-d to-bypass)

  We are in a mission of installing Solaris Express community
in all our M.Tech Lab machines

   
  It would be great have your solutions at the earliest.
  Please do recommend any 3rd party partitioning software to 
  Partition for windows and Solaris

   
   
  Thanks and regard,
