Hi Jack and Zhong-Yuan,
as part of evaluating potential fix for bug 16714, I have built AI Sparc
image
based on 147 skipping compress() step in boot_archive_archive.py
finalizer [1].
I basically commented out following section:
...
if IS_SPARC:
# print "Doing compression..."
# try:
# compress(BA_BUILD, BA_LOFI_MNT_PT)
# except Exception:
# release_archive()
# raise
...
However, in this case DDU fails with following messages in /tmp/install_log:
$ more /tmp/install_log

Will continue anyway...
...
With stock 147 AI Sparc image, it succeeds:
$ more /tmp/install_log

...
DDU related section in my AI manifest looks like:
...
<add_drivers>
<search_all addall="true">
<source>
<publisher name="opensolaris.org">
<origin name="http://ipkg.sfbay/dev"/>
</publisher>
</source>
</search_all>
</add_drivers>
...
Do you happen to have any idea why it might be failing ?
One of the differences between those two boot archives
I am aware of is that the modified boot archive preserves
/var/sadm/pkg/*/pkginfo.* hardlinks. This is what fix for 16714
is aiming for. Might it be source of the problems here ?
Thank you very much,
Jan
