I thought I had covered all the boxes during VB setup of Solaris 11.4 and finally the install started. After choosing language, location, blahbhlah it seemed to be doing fine. Then it stopped with two fields one on top of another.
The top one said Console login: with a cursor after it
The next one said password:
I had supplied a password earlier in the process but I'm darned if I can remember seeing a "console login" entry at any point. I tried various ideas but nothing worked.
Any ideas or maybe even a solution?
