Sunmanagers,

This is a fresh install of Solaris 10 on x86 with latest patches.
Everything is fine, except the rc3.d scripts are not executed at boot
time. Culprit seems to be svc:/system/install:default

# svcs -l svc:/system/install:default
fmri svc:/system/install:default
name install
enabled true
state maintenance
next_state none
state_time Wed Nov 09 14:52:52 2005
logfile /var/svc/log/system-install:default.log
restarter svc:/system/svc/restarter:default
dependency require_all/none svc:/milestone/sysconfig (online)
dependency require_all/none svc:/system/filesystem/local (online)

# svcs -xv svc:/system/install:default
svc:/system/install:default (install)
  State: maintenance since Mon Nov 14 17:26:46 2005
Reason: Start method failed repeatedly, last exited with status 1.
    See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-KS
    See: /var/svc/log/system-install:default.log
Impact: 3 dependent services are not running:
         svc:/milestone/multi-user-server:default
         svc:/system/zones:default
         svc:/network/inetd-upgrade:default

The log tells me it tries to execute /lib/svc/method/install-launcher,
but this file doesn't exist on my system.

[ Nov 14 14:08:45 Executing start method
("/lib/svc/method/install-launcher > /dev/console < /dev/console 2>&1") ]
[ Nov 14 14:08:45 Method "start" exited with status 1 ]

After I disable the service, things don't get any better:

# svcadm disable svc:/system/install:default

# svcs -xv
svc:/system/install:default (install)
  State: disabled since Mon Nov 14 14:37:29 2005
Reason: Disabled by an administrator.
    See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-05
    See: /var/svc/log/system-install:default.log
Impact: 3 dependent services are not running:
         svc:/milestone/multi-user-server:default
         svc:/system/zones:default
         svc:/network/inetd-upgrade:default

I don't find anything helpful neither in the docs nor on the web or in
the groups.

Thanks for any hint!

Paul
