T1000 boot hangs

New out of box T1000 booted a few times, now hangs during boot.

AOLM is fine, but Solaris is sick. Could it be that the boot disk/partition is corrupted? There's a console capture below - the little boot spinner spins for a while then stops, always in the same 45 degree angle position. weird.

Usually I do most of my work on Linux but his seems to cry out for file system check. what ever happened to fsck on boot?

Is there a boot option to do a file system integrity check and repair?

I hope so..

TIA !

{0} ok boot

It hasnt got far enough into boot to do a fsck.

If the spinner is still spinning its still initialising the kernel.

So its fairly fundamentally hosed.

You can try a netboot or cd boot and look around.

And see if you can see anything obviously wrong.

Or copy stuff off.

But reinstalling from scratch is looking like your best option.
