This has the unfortunate consequence that beadm activate<newbe> fails in a quite non-obvious way. Running it under truss, I find that it invokes installgrub, which fails. The manual equivalent is r...@masaya 266 # installgrub /a/boot/grub/stage1 /a/boot/grub/stage2 /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s3 cannot read MBR on /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0p0 open: No such file or directory r...@masaya 267 # installgrub /a/boot/grub/stage1 /a/boot/grub/stage2 /dev/rdsk/c11t0d0s3 stage1 written to partition 0 sector 0 (abs 16065) stage2 written to partition 0, 273 sectors starting at 50 (abs 16115) For the time being, I'm working around this by replacing installgrub by a script, but obviously this shouldn't happen and the problem isn't easy to find. I thought I'd seen a zfs CR for this, but cannot find it right now, especially with search on bugs.opensolaris.org being only partially functional. Any suggestions? Thanks. Rainer
