Solaris won't load.

Post by Banjo233 »

Good day, my host OS (Windows 7 sp1, x64) had problems installing Solaris. I switched it from 10.9 to 11(x64) and it finally installed. After creating a domain login, signing into my account, and selecting boot from hard disk, it just stays there at my login information. It doesn't load up the GUI or anything.

Example: my login is banjo233, after logging in, it says banjo233@BanjoHome:~$ and doesn't do anything after. it doesn't load. Am I suppose to boot from the command line or something? Help would be much appreciated.

so solaris is loading, you just don't have it configured to boot to x11 that's all, you probably did a core install instead of full+oem.

10u9 and 11u1 work fine here (linux host).
