Unable to enter password on Solaris 10u8

Post by Hunter067 »

I managed to get Solaris working just right after two tries to get it installed on Virtualbox 3.2.8, however, there is one very huge problem...
Funnily enough, the keyboard works exactly as set, it allows me to type data in such as my username, but when it comes to my password, it will not let me enter anything in the password field, bot on the desktop mode log-in and the command line log-in. What should I do?

The password field does not echo (no feed back) in Solaris 10u8. Are you sure that you are typing the right password?
