Thank you all for the comments. We have updated all of your concerns that
you mentioned into our new webrev:
http://cr.opensolaris.org/~chris_n/netboot_text_install_v2/

and the updated parts located at:
http://cr.opensolaris.org/~chris_n/netboot_text_install_part/

To address specific concerns:

   - ict.py: The check was added to give additional debugging statements.
   Install finish was also now modified so that the packages to remove are the
   exact same for text and auto install. This check will prevent an error later
   down from trying to uninstall a package that is not there.


   - We made modifications to installadm and to the finalizer script that
   generates .image_info so that if it is a net-text image installadm would
   generate a new GRUB menu to represent that the default choice is now text
   install. We were looking for feedback if this is the right way to go. If we
   change the GRUB menu some users may get confused when they boot it up for
   the sole purpose of getting dropped into a console and see <release> Text
   Install. However a user who wants to use it to do a text install may also
   get confused if it doesn't say anything except <release> boot image. Does
   anybody have an alternative or feel strongly one way or the other?

We would appreciate any additional feedback.

Thanks,
Chris & Andrew
