I added http://ipkg.sfbay/dev/ to the repository. However, the package manager requires an "update-all" before installing the new SUNWinstalladm-tools. After all these, the AI server has been upgraded to 106. However, when the system rebooted and right after I logged in to the console, the kernel crashed. It was pretty persistent and I'll file a bug later.
So I have to reinstall the AI server with 08.11 to provision osol-0811-rc2-ai-x86 again. However AI clients would not install with the following error messages: ddm_drive_get_name(): Can't get alias name, err=9 Cannot find the disk on the target system.
