Why don't you quit using it
and focus a little more on installing SunStudio (which isn't that hard
to do; at least not so hard as you want us to believe it is in another

-all- software was placed where it was supposed to.

Lucky you. So you doubt that I ran the ./installer, the GUI came up, and in the end netbeans wasn't there? Why should I make that up??
It took me until here

to find the solution, even though the title didn't fit.


Maybe because on the fifth day some hardware failure occurred? ;-)

That would be which? The system works and is up and running beautifully. OpenSolaris, as of now. Ah, you're hinting at a rare hardware glitch as underlying problem? AFAIU, it is a proclaimed feature of ZFS that writes are atomic, out and over.


Uwe,
who is a big fan of a ZFS that fulfills all of its promises. Snapshots and luupgrade have yet to fail me on it. And a few other beautiful things. It is the reliability that makes me wonder if UFS/FFS/ext3 are not better choices in this respect. Blaming standard, off-the-shelf hardware as 'too cheap' is a too slippery slope, btw.
