Yes, the installation (all default) was succeeded, but the boot the 
machine from hard disk has failed... Cann't the system read from hard 
disk, or?

There is the error message:

Cannot load scsi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(8)/boot.
Unable to load scsi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(8)/boot: execute format error
