Dell PowerEdge 2850 & Solaris 10 (1/06) Install



Good morning,

I am tinking with a Dell PowerEdge 2850 and Solaris 10 (1/06), and am
running across a problem installing. The System doesn't see the RAID
drives.

I've researched the problem on sun.com, and see there is a driver for
the controller. (http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=431fd1be)

I've got that, but following the install instructions is a little
'fuzzy'.

Looks like the 1/06 verison of Solaris boots with GRUB, so I am not
sure when the "Device Configuration Assistance" starts. I've never
seen it yet nor I can locate it.

Anyone have a step by step for a text based install (or overwise)
where I can get to the Dev Configuration Assistance so I can install
the driver.

Thanks
.
