I concur with you and Alok - doing the opposite would
prevent user from being able to observe the installed
system and log files before reboot occurs, wouldn't
be user friendly if user was logged in by the time
the installation finished and might cause the installer
to be inadvertently restarted if network was selected
as default boot device.

Since auto-installer start method exits after installation
is done, what might be the right approach to prevent the
start method from being restarted ? Might be the good way
to disable auto-installer SMF service before the start
method exits ?

Thank you,
Jan
