my x86 test machine was installed with snv_62 and then bfu'd to daily.0427.
then i Installed a glom kernel and rebooted with the following command:
reboot -- kernel.edp/amd64/unix -k
but when the machine tried to boot i got the following error message from
grub:
---8<---
Booting 'Solaris_reboot_transient'
root (hd0,0,b)
Filesystem type is ufs, partition type 0x82
kernel ¬þ¿l¬þ¿^û¿
Error 1: Filename must be either an absolute pathname or blocklist
---8<---
grub was nice enough to send me back to it's menu where i took a look
at the menu transient reboot menu entry. here's what it looked like:
---8<---
| root (hd0,0,b) |
| kernel ¬þ¿l¬þ¿^û¿ |
| module /platform/i86pc/boot_archive |
---8<---
Work Around
Instead of "reboot -- kernel/unix -k", run "eeprom boot-file=kernel/unix; reboot -- -k"
