I'm running dual-boot Windows and Nevada build 73 on a Toshiba M5 x86 laptop
with 1 x 100 gb internal hard disk. I followed the video instructions in the
opensolaris > documentation page to shrink my 100 gb ntfs partition to 50 gb
ntfs + 50 gb linux_swap and then ran the installer from DVD. It looks like the
build 73 installer made 3 file systems for me so as to make it live_upgrade
friendly:
/dev/dsk/c0d0s0 = / (13GB; 6.2GB used)
/dev/dsk/c0d0s4 = /second_root (13GB; mostly empty; only has lost+found)
/dev/dsk/c0d0s7 = /export/home (15GB; 3.6GB used; contains build 76 iso)
Assuming that /second_root was intended for the secondary boot environment, I
ran lucreate which throws an error:
# lucreate -c sxde-build-73 -m /:/dev/dsk/c0d0s4:ufs -n sxde-build-76

ERROR: cannot create new boot environment using file systems as configured
ERROR: please review all file system configuration options

Where c0d0s4 = /second_root. Despite the errors, somehow it created
sxde-build-73 as shown by lustatus:

sxde-build-73 yes yes yes no -
The lucreate command complained about the /second_root mount so I unmounted it
and reran lucreate just to see:

ERROR: The following required file systems are not mounted by the currently

ERROR: All required PBE file systems are not mounted.
So now it's complaining that /second_root needs to be mounted. Either I'm doing
something wrong with the lucreate command or /second_root is not actually set
up to do what I think it's supposed to:
bash-3.00# lufslist -n sxde-build-73
boot environment name: sxde-build-73
This boot environment is currently active.
This boot environment will be active on next system boot.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
