Hi,

I'm trying to install Solaris 10 on AMD AthlonXP 2400+, 500MB RAM, 80GB
harddisk. Each time it fails on disk 3: it starts out loading from CD,
but after a short while the system hangs. No error messages given.
Previously it ran Solaris 8 and 9 without problems.
Any idea what might be wrong?

Thanks

Huub
