Pavan,
Here is the fdisk -l output. OpenSolaris partition is the active partition.

I have been switching between OpenSolaris and Ubuntu (Lucid Lynx).
I had installed OpenSolaris first and then Ubuntu. So, Ubuntu's Grub2
became my boot manager.
It was working fine, till I did a upgrade to OpenSolaris build 137
(internal bits). A reboot from OpenSolaris worked. But, after a hard
reboot, with GRUB2 failed.
After choosing 'OpenSolaris' from my Grub menu ("root (hd0,2);
chainloader +1; boot), all I see now is the blinking cursor instead
of OpenSolaris' grub.
Any help on how to get back to OpenSolaris (I am stuck with Ubuntu
now). Thanks.
When it was working, what build of OpenSolaris were you using?
Try making the partition on which OpenSolaris resides as the active
partition, and see if things work.
A partition map - output of "fdisk -l" from the linux installation
will help understand the problem better.
