Way back when (yesterday), at the start of this thread, Paul said: "When
I run probe-scsi I get a bus error." [1]

The way I usually approach these kinds of problems it to try to make
sure it's not a hardware problem before looking to software (the OS). 
Power down your system, boot to the OK prompt, and issue
probe-scsi-all.  If you still get the bus error message, this would
suggest it has nothing to do with Solaris.
