Apparently with zfs boot, if the zpool is a version grub doesn''t recognize, it merely ignores any zfs entries in menu.lst, and apparently instead boots the first entry it thinks it can boot. I ran into this myself due to some boneheaded mistakes while doing a very manual zfs / install at the summit. Shouldn''t it at least spit out a warning? If so, I have no issues filing a

Hello, I''m using the latest b75 ISO to try and get a solaris dom0 running on my laptop, a Sony SZ-330P. The Xen LiveCD works just fine, so I know that theoretically it should work. Build 75 also works just fine on my Sony, including sound and video, etc. But when I try and boot the Xen kernel, the system hangs. There''s no panic printed to console. If I pass a -v option at

...ystem booted up got complaints about kstat install because I still had an old zpool kernel module lying around. So I did pkgrm SUNWzfs and SUNWzfskr SUNWzfsku SUNWzfsr (ie the old and the new). I then rebooted, all okay. Now I need to get ZFS bits on here so I pkgadd SUNWzfs* from the snv_42 Solaris_11/Product directory.

I tried first with a mirror zfsroot, when I try to boot to zfsboot the screen is flooded with "init(1M) exited on fatal signal 9" Than I tried with a simple zfs pool (not mirrored) and it just reboots right away. If I try to setup grub

Hello. I have a Solaris 11/11 x86 box (which I migrated from SolEx 11/10 a couple of weeks ago). Without no obvious reason (at least for me), after an uptime of 1 to 2 days (observed 3 times now) Solaris sets arc_no_grow to 1 and then never sets it back to 0. ARC is being shrunk to less than 1 GB -- needless to say that performance is terrible. There is not much load on this system. Memory
