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

Console login services cannot run

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
