<p class="MsoNormal">I accidentally detached my topic from the mailing list last week so here I am trying again with more details this time. I have installed OmniOS on a Supermicro system running with 3 LSI 9300 8i controlllers(see hardware list below) but
while installation proceeds normally, boot fails at grub, all I see is the word grub with a flashing cursor and I am unable to interact at all. I did notice a warning about i/o requests not being aligned with the 4096 byte disk but after installation I checked
the ashift with the live cd and it was 12 as it should be. I have checked to ensure that I am running via AHCI in the BIOS. I even tried re-running installgrub –m /boot/grub/stage1 /boot/grub/stage2 /dev/rdsk/c1t5000C50d0…s0. Any ideas? Thanks!<o:p></o:p></p>
