[OpenIndiana-discuss] OI stopped booting after 151a6 update.

[Milan Jurik]

Hi,

it would be nice if people affected by this are active on that issue. 
Currently I have only one reporting person who wrote that the problem 
seems to be visible only in case that hald is daemonized. Ongoing 
investigation. I cannot reproduce it on my system (yet).

Best regards,

Milan
