Troubleshooting Login and User Account Issues
Use the following information to help you troubleshoot potential startup issues.
If your system's graphics card is not supported by the live CD, or your system does not have a graphics card, the system boots in console mode when you insert the live CD. In this case, you cannot perform a GUI installation.
Your two alternatives are as follows:
Use the text installer image instead of the live CD ISO image.
You can run the text installer on the local console without network access. To download the text installer image, go to http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solaris11/downloads/index.html.
Perform a remote installation.
If you use this option, you do not need to download the text installer image. However, note that this option requires remote ssh access and a target system that has an X server running. For instructions, see How to Install Oracle Solaris From the Live CD If Your System Boots in Console Mode.
