Hi Darren,
could you please provide more information about which installer
you are referring too (I guess you mean opensolaris GUI installer,
but it is not quite clear from your email) and which kind of issues
you run into when you try to install on partition which already
contains opensolaris instance ? In particular, could you please attach
/tmp/install_log file from failed installation ?
Which installer?
I downloaded a copy of the image used for USB devices, wrote that onto
an external USB drive (20G) and booted that, so whichever installer
comes with that.
I no longer have the install log handy, but effectively what happens
is that because "rpool" is there from a prior installation, creation
of the ZFS pool "rpool" fails.
If the installer is kicked off again right after successful installation
(without reboot), it is expected to fail, since it detects that the
installation
just took place.
However, if system is rebooted between two installations, the installer
wipes out previously installed rpool.
