If you have a IBM IDE hard disk on Solaris x86 and did enable DMA for ata,
then your system may hang after a reboot due to a firmware bug in the IBM
drive. On Solaris 9 you may edit the config file /platform/i86pc/kernel/drv/ata.conf
see also man ata.

On earlier versions, you need to patch the ata driver (see below):

Bruce posted a patch for this problem some time ago:

Note that the exact position of the instruction that needs to be patched
may vary depending on the version of Solaris you use. Be extremely careful
when applying the patch.
