Phenoms and recent OpenSolaris developer builds

Thursday, October 1. 2009

This error was introduced somewhere after build 111a of Opensolaris. The bug looks strange as you just see the splash screen, press a key and the system reboots. But when you modify the grub commands to enforce a text mode boot, you will see a message reporting an unexpected trap. I think it's this bug described at bugs.opensolaris.org with the bug id 6844241. The fix is commited for build 126.
