Gilles:

This had been a known issue since snv_78

6633017 - b78 doesn't jumpstart on x86, AND b81 sparc has the same problem


Workaround:

Get rid of the netmask= entry in your sysidcfg file.  E.g., change this:

network_interface=primary { protocol_ipv6=no netmask=255.255.255.0 }

to this:

network_interface=primary { protocol_ipv6=no }

Beware that you made need to add an entry to /etc/inet/netmasks manually 
after installation.


The above mentioned workaround succeeds in making the installation 
non-interactive again, but has the following side-effects:

The interface becomes a dhcp configured interface rather than a 
statically assigned one. In short, the workaround does not end up with 
the desired configuration. There will need to be several additional 
steps to revert the machine to the static address.
