x86: Screens Displayed During the Device Identification Phase
Several screens are displayed as the Solaris Device Configuration Assistant
attempts to identify devices on the system.
x86: Configuration Assistant Screen
This screen appears each time you boot the Solaris Device Configuration
Assistant. The Solaris Device Configuration Assistant runs every time the
system is booted, although the autoboot process bypasses the menus.
Solaris Device Configuration Assistant
The Solaris(TM) (Intel Platform Edition) Device Configuration Assistant
scans to identify system hardware, lists identified devices, and can
boot the Solaris software from a specified device. This program must be
used to install the Solaris operating environment, add a driver,
or change the hardware on the system.
> To perform a full scan to identify all system hardware, choose Continue.
> To diagnose possible full scan failures, choose Specific Scan.
> To add new or updated device drivers, choose Add Driver.
About navigation...
- The mouse cannot be used.
- If the keyboard does not have function keys or they do not respond,
press ESC. The legend at the bottom of the screen will change to
show the ESC keys to use for navigation.
- The F2 key performs the default action.

x86: Menus Displayed During the Boot Phase
During this phase, you can determine the way in which the system is
booted.
x86: Boot Solaris Menu
The Boot Solaris menu allows you to select the device from which to
boot the Solaris release. You can also perform optional tasks, such as viewing
and editing autoboot and property settings. Once you select a boot device
and you choose Continue, the Solaris kernel begins to boot.
Boot Solaris
Select one of the identified devices to boot the Solaris kernel and
choose Continue.
To perform optional features, such as modifying the autoboot and property
settings, choose Boot Tasks.
An asterisk (*) indicates the current default boot device.
> To make a selection use the arrow keys, and press Enter to mark it [X].
