First, when you say that you upgraded from OpenSolaris 2008.05 to snv_94, what do you mean? Because I'm not sure how one "upgrades" an IPS-based release to the older SVR4 packages-based release type. Do you mean that you did an initial install using snv_94? If so, did you select a zfs root or a ufs root? At what point were you presented with the suggestion to upgrade the pool from ver.10 to ver.11?
Also, you write that you are doing a burn of SXCE snv_94, but how did you do the "upgrade" (or whatever) to snv_94 in the first place without a snv_94 install medium?
