Same thing happend to me and 1 other person I know. I had the 1542C.
I spent nights and nights trying to get it going. Try using the
"update" disks, I've put all of them in ftp.csua.berkeley.edu in
/pub/x86solaris. Be advised that it'll most likely mess with your C:.
If everything works out OK, after the installatin is done, if you still
have problems booting, then the only way you can probably fix that is if
you either get a different configuration or if you boot off the
update disk.

: Using an Adaptec 1542-CF ISA card and Conner 1060S 1Gig drive, Solaris 2.4
: will boot off the SCSI drive, start to load with the spinning text wheel
: going for 10 seconds or so, and then the kernel just panics!
: I've had this happen on a Compaq 486 and a Gateway 2000 P5-90. I assume the
: board is set wrong as I can't believe no one uses a combo of Adaptec 1542 and
: a Gig SCSI drive.
: Any ideas???
