I've installed Solaris on systems w/ framebuffers via serial console,
and later ran the machine with a monitor/keyboard/mouse w/o incident.

I've also installed Solaris on systems w/o framebuffers via serial
console, and had issues adding a framebuffer later (drivers not
installed).

And, to be complete, I've installed Solaris on systems w/ framebuffers
and monitor/keyboard/mouse w/o incident. ;^)
