Randy,

(cc: caiman-discuss, and solaris release engineering)

I just downloaded both s11u1b4 and s11u1b7 (I assumed the LiveCD is what you used as you mentioned installing to a laptop).

I cross referenced 7059924 to see if the solarismisc.zlib was growing in size:

b04:
[mox:code] > sudo mount -F hsfs sol-11-u1-04-live-x86.iso /mnt

[mox:code] > ls -lh /mnt/solarismisc.zlib
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 40M 2011-11-30 19:52 /mnt/solarismisc.zlib

[mox:code] > ls -lh /mnt/solaris.zlib
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 707M 2011-11-30 19:50 /mnt/solaris.zlib


b07:
[mox:code] > sudo mount -F hsfs sol-11-u1-07-live-x86.iso /mnt

[mox:code] > ls -lh /mnt/solarismisc.zlib
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 41M 2012-01-10 13:12 /mnt/solarismisc.zlib

[mox:code] > ls -lh /mnt/solaris.zlib
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 709M 2012-01-10 13:10 /mnt/solaris.zlib

The zlibs are not changing in size all that dramatically. If the boot archive is indeed full, it's for another reason other than the symptoms shown in 7059924.

RE: Do you happen to have the build logs available from the distribution constructor runs which constructed the build 7 images?

Thanks!

I think you either have a regression or a close cousin

I am looking at bug 7059924. Using Solaris 11 update 1 build 7 from nana.us.oracle.com, I am trying to load Solaris on a brand new motherboard I just picked up. It is an 8 core AMD processor I think, on an ASUS M5A78L with 8GB of RAM. Not "cutting edge" but pretty darn modern.

Anyway, the trouble I am having is exactly what is described in 7059924 - I get the same logged error, and when I do a "du -kh /" I am seeing 100% full disk with a tiny slice of free space.

I have so far tried b04 and b07 - surprisingly, installing b04 was no problem on my Toshiba laptop, my Ultra 24, my Ultra 20, etc... same exact plastic disk.

Is there some manual workaround for this? I could not find the webrev for the workaround mentioned in the bug, the opensolaris.org says "Record not found" It looks like it is SOOOOOO close to working.

When I boot I get bad sig, which is never a happy thing to see.

I am in a holding pattern until I hear back from you. LMK what I can do, if there is something I could try/test for you, etc. I actually used to work in the Solaris Install group back when it was at RMTC and wrote a lot of automated tests for the eeprom/jumpstart testing.
