And what exactly was the text of that error message ? Did you check the /tmp/install_log file ?

Where are a lot of important steps that are performed after transferring the livecd contents to hdd, when the opensoliris installer is at 99%. When one or more of these steps fail the system most likely won't boot. /tmp/install_log should reveal what went wrong... > Rebooting shows me, that there was no more > bootmanager.

Hmm, opensolaris uses a zfs root filesystem, and as far as I know, Linux' grub doesn't support booting from zfs. You have to use Solaris grub to be able to boot from a zfs root. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
