I've been trying to install a Solaris 10 full OS in a non-global zone of an
open solaris machine. I followed the following steps;
1. Installed the Solaris10 brand package in the global zone, which allowed me
to create a solaris 10 branded zone.
2. Using "flarcreate" created an image of the machine to be installed in the
branded zone.
3. Tried to install the image in the branded zone using the following commands;
* Can anyone suggest what I can do next? *
/zonespool# zoneadm -z z2 install -a /zonespool/engtsc22.flar -u
A ZFS file system has been created for this zone.
