Solaris wont boot after installing Smart Boot Manager

I installed Solaris 10 today. Everything was fine, but because i have 2 WXP installations on my 2 harddrives i have to install a boot manager. I always used Smart Boot Manager because it was simple and powerful. But after that if i try to run Solaris, the Solaris Booting System starts, everything is fine (except this that it doesnt see my keyboard) but then i get an error like this:
ERROR: system/filesystem/root:default cant mount /boot
and promts to type the administrator password. I uninstalled SBM and now everything is OK. But i cant boot my 2nd WXP install.
(my HDD's:
HDD1@SATA-0: (First boot device in my BIOS)
1) WXP
2) Solaris Boot <- Active
3) Solaris
4) NTFS
HDD2&#64;PATA-0-Master (Second boot device in my BIOS)
1) WXP <- Active
2) NTFS)
Has anyone a workaround for this problem?

That seems to be a known issue that have been for a lot of time around with some combinations of X-Fi, mobo, and GPU...
This problem doesnt have any real solution at all... if you dont have a way to config in the bios the priority of video card, like what goes first for video PCI or PCI-E, that is the only way to fix it so far.

  • Windows 7 wont boot after install of boot camp drivers

    I have been trying to get boot camp on imac mid 2010 with Maverick.   TodayI used
    Boot Camp Support Software 5.1.5621
    The first set of drivers
    Boot Camp Support Software 5.0.5033
    kept crashing on windows. Today I noticed a new set of drivers, well its the same issue. If I leave off the boot camp drivers windows is fine, except no sound and other driver missing issues but it works. The problem seems to be Mav or the drivers, before updating to Mav everything was fine. Sometimes I can even get to the windows log on screen, at one point I was able to log on and do things. So being smart, I restarted and the problem came back.  Who says Macs dont have issues.
    Any thoughts

    Just ran into this same issue.
    My problem got resolved after using the x64 version DVD of Win7 (just x64 instead of the DVD that had both x86 and x64 versions).
    What I did:
    My host is Windows 8.1
    After installing Windows 7 x64 as VM on my 8.1 based laptop two days ago, I wanted to do the same on my desktop PC, but I had the same issue described here.
    I used a DVD just with the x64 version for my laptop and a DVD with both x86 and x64 version for my desktop.
    Tried repairing as advised by a post, but got the error: "This version of System Recovery Options is not compatible
    with the version of Windows you are trying to repair. Try using a recovery disc that is compatible with this version of windows."
    I exported and imported the VM from my laptop to my desktop to test it and it ran with no problems.
    So I tried the DVD that had just the x64 version of Win7 and that installed without issues.
    I'm curious if this happens only when a DVD with more than one Win7 versions is used.

  • Windows 8.1 Pro not booting after install of Hyper V - ASUS z87 + intel 4670K

    Hi,
    I am running windows 8.1 pro on a intel 4670K 4th Gen Haswell CPU and ASUS z87 plus motherboard. 16gb of kingston hyperx ddr1600 memory.
    I have enabled virtualisation technology in the bios.  CPU has SLAT.... or Extended Page Table, as intel likes to refer to it.
    When I install HyperV platform and management tools the computer configures and reboots
    AFter reboot it brings up the blue window image and spinning circle of dots for a while then reboots. It does the same thing again and then reboots and goings into repair mode and asks me to do a system restore. It then restores to before they HyperV install.
    I've tried turning off xHCI mode (i.e USB 3.0) in the bios as this seemed to be a known issue with some gigabyte boards. This did not rectify the issue
    Updated to latest asus mainboard bios 1405.  Same issue still occurs upon install of hyper V.
    Automatic repair does not work and I have to restore from system restore point.
    I performed a clean boot after installing the feature and it still couldnt boot to windows.. it just sits at windows logo and then restarts a few times and then launches the startup repair. Once the startup repair begins, the only way I can get into windows
    is restoring to a system restore point from before the hyperv feature install.

    I logged a job with asus support and their response was:

    Previously asked this question but took a while to get back to update with the logs and it was listed as Answered.
    This issue is still existing and I'd appreciating any assistance.

  • Will not start even in safe boot after installing latest camera update

    MacBook Pro will not start even in safe boot after installing latest camera update.
    I started my machine and did a software update. Only the camera update needed. So installed and when required I pressed restart. It restarted and did install. Then restarted again. I expected to get to the login screen and it turned itself off. Tried three more times. Each time shutting off. I unplugged everything, and pressed start waiting for log in window. No it shutdown before the log in window. I then tried safe mode and that did not work either on three more occasions.

    I have managed to resolve some issues. I can now restart the machine via a CD boot. If I do cmd C into something like tech tool pro, then restart from that disks menu it restarts every time.
    If I try a safe start it shuts down. If I try a normal start it shuts down. I have managed to repair permissions and that cleared up some start up permissions but with no improvement to the boot problem. The only way to load is via the cmd-C boot option. Any other ideas?

  • Macbook pro won't boot after installing update 10.9.3

    macbook pro won't boot after installing update 10.9.3

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Very slow boot after installing 10.10.3

    insanely slow boot after installing 10.10.3, it takes 10times longer compare to 10.10.2, using MBA 2014

    Open System Preferences, select Startup Disk, and make sure your internal drive is selected as the startup disk. Then click restart!
    This worked for me, personally with the same issue.
    Good luck!

  • Excel Taking time to open after installing Smart View

    Hi,
    After installing Smart View excel is taking around 2 minutes to open.
    We just launch Excel and it takes two minutes to open. We don't connect to the planning server. Then when Excel responds, the smart view plugin works fine, we can connect to the Planning server and work normally.
    Here's the installation detail:
    We have install Smart View 11.1.2.2.310 on Windows 7 - 64Bits SP1. Each client use Office Standard 2010.
    RAM: 4GB
    Procesor: Pentium dual core T4200 2Ghz
    We have try to install Smart View 11.1.2.3.000 and we have the same issue.
    The machine ressource don't bog down. The procesor and ram use are normal.
    The problem is that when the end user open an office document with the plugin smart view activate it takes 2 minute to open. There is no error. When Excel respond, the smart view works fine.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Regards,
    David.

    There was a bug in 11.1.2.1 and MS 2010 where the refresh is slower. I've seen the same on my machine with same configuration.
    You can log an SR and see whether it is also a bug.

  • Solaris 3/05 no longer boots after installing 113000-07

    I can't get Solaris 10 3/05 to boot anymore after installing patch 113000-7. The patch was installed by Sun's update connection software.
    The computer is a Dell Dimension XPS T600 with 512MB ram.
    I get the error:
    Error 28: Selected item cannot fit into memory.

    I'm not sure how to edit my replies so I'm just gonna make another reply. I assumed the following values:
    GPT 3 Start
    GPT 3 End
    GPT 3 Size
    NTFS Start
    NTFS Offset
    NTFS End
    NTFS Size
    293378384

    1936
    294649856
    1936
    490233855
    195584000
    I followed the rest of the instructions given here. I made sure to enter the second number with a + sign. After doing all of that all these checks worked:
    Test 1 - Does Bootcamp Volume show up in Finder?
    Test 2 - Can you see files in Bootcamp Volume?
    Test 3 - Can you select Bootcamp in System Preferences -> Startup Disk?
    I've always been able to access my bootcamp files from finder and I can try to boot from System Preferences -> startup disk, from rEFIt and also from my macbooks startup manager that I access by holding down option while booting.
    I'm starting to think I've misrepresented my problem and that I've been looking at the wrong threads. Every time I try to boot windows I get a black screen with the Windows logo and some text saying something like "starting automatic recovery" or something like that. It then takes me to a blue screen displaying an error number and telling me to use recovery tools on the installation media. Maybe this is different from the problems I've been looking at in other threads.
    I've tried using the same USB I used to install bootcamp with but it doesn't give me the option of repairing the installation.
    EDIT: So I figured out how to edit replies. Anyway I just tried to boot into Windows and checked. The black screen with the Windows logo says "Preparing Automatic Repair". The blue screen gives me the error 0xc00000e.

  • Hd won't boot after installing solaris 10

    I installed cd1 for Solaris 10 for x64/x86. Then I rebooted as I was instructed by the setup but the pc won't boot the hd. Am I doing something wrong? How can I boot my hd to solaris?

    Having just installed Solaris 10 u1 on a system myself recently. This version now uses a different boot loader. So it may help others to know which version you are installing. (maybe it's opensolaris?)
    Also, the drives on these systems are first partitioned using the DOS "fdisk" type partitioning. You basically create a SOLARIS2 type partition and build the "format slices" inside it. If this Solaris partition isn't marked as "active" in fdisk you will get no place fast. So check that first.
    Usually the install does all this for you but depending on how you did the install it may not have.
