Mount the BE with beadm after importing rpool: # beadm list # beadm mount OS_148 /a # /a/usr/sbin/installgrub /a/boot/stage1 /a/boot/stage2 dev/rdsk/c0d0s0 The device should be replaced with the your device. I believe you can use format to identify your disk. Now you can do the update-archive thing.
