This is a very newbie question. I tried to install the new Solaris 10 on My Intel 32bit box.
After the first screen, I choose the interactive menu but I cannot load it. I even cannot load the other
3 menus. After I choose one of the menu the screen showed "configuring device" and then the PC restarted automatically and repeat the same process.
I don`t know how to solve the problem, could you guys help me ? Because this is my first time using
Unix Sun Solaris. Thank you very much for your attention.
Distribution: Solaris 11.4, Oracle Linux, Mint, Debian/WSL

Rep:
You probably have some piece of hardware unsupported interacting badly with some driver. You need to identify which one it is, either by removing it if possible, or disabling it through the bios.
Once I can read the error message, and it said something like there was a problem with my dvd rom.
But when I tried to install another O/s it was OK. And there is no problem with the installation cd.
