I have installed Solaris along with Xp ....The installation was successful... I get the Grub menu displaying Solaris along with Win Xp....After i select Solaris the following happens,
"Failed to initialize inband hotplug controller"
The above message repeats three times & i get the "hostname console login"
After i login when the system tries to boot up the GUI screen the following happens,
There is a black screen with pink stripes on top....After this nothing happens.
The system just freezes up.
Is there any solution for this without reformatting & reinstalling the OS ???
then if that doesn't work start disabling things like "plug & play" etc until the machine starts up, then if things aren't detected or working back track on things you disabled.
I had to remove an ISA sound board for Solaris 10 to work on my PC.
