hi all, when doing Live Upgrade sometimes after 'init 6' the system becomes unreachable as it prompts for "Keyboard Layout" configuration in single-user mode. this could be quite problematic on machines that do not have remote console and physical access is not possible. some solaris updates go smooth (e.g. LU from S10 U8 -> U9) and on some the prompt just appears (LU from U9 -> U10) -- the machine in question is Sun LX50. is there a workaround for this? i need to be sure that the machine will be reachable via network after the "reboot" to the new boot environment. greetings, Stoyan Angelov
