It seems that there is a bug[1] in the script so instead of installing GRUB on submirror /dev/rdsk/c3d0s0, it tried on /dev/rdsk//dev/rdsk/c3d0s0 which obviously failed.
So, I'd say that GRUB is installed on one part of the mirror only. You can probably repair it by running installgrub manually but even with that it might not be sufficient. -- Renaud [1] 6782215 luactivate with SVM fails due to incorrect parsing of 'metastat -p' output 6723956 cannot boot an BE using u6 Lu packages and solaris 1/06, errors parsing metastat in lux86menu_prop Jim Faut wrote: > LOL.
