Troubleshooting 47


Installation succeeds but server fails to boot

If the system is not booting to GRUB, verify the standard boot order and boot controller order in

RBSU. If booting from Smart Array, the Solaris root disk must be SCSI target 0, LUN 0 (that is,
cxt0d0).
If the system is booting to GRUB, but reboots shortly after the Solaris copyright banner appears, then
verify that the CPQary3 package was installed to the disk during installation (for more information,

see “JumpStart preparation”). Another symptom of this problem is the kernel debugger showing that

Solaris is panicking with “cannot mount root.”

Installation succeeds but no network availability after reboot

If Solaris is unable to configure network interfaces after the post-installation reboot, see “Network
configuration fails during interactive installation.”

In addition, verify that all required NIC drivers were installed to the disk during installation. For more

information, see “JumpStart preparation.”
