Booting From a ZFS Root File System on an x86 Based System

Starting in Oracle Solaris 11.1, x86 based systems are installed with GRUB2. The menu.lst file is replaced by the /rpool/boot/grub/grub.cfg file. Do not edit this file manually. Instead, use the bootadm sub commands to add, change, and remove menu entries.

Note:

If your system's Oracle Solaris version still uses legacy GRUB, see Booting From a ZFS Root File System on an x86 Based System, which describes ZFS root file system entries in the menu.lst file.

For more information about modifying the GRUB menu items, see Booting and Shutting Down Oracle Solaris 11.4 Systems.
