hi!

As it did turn out, it is not about bootloader being damaged, but installboot 
doing slightly wrong (updating VBR/PBR while stage2 was not updated). I’ll try 
to get the fix integrated asap, but for now, the workaround is:

after you run pkg update, force update of boot program with: 
beadm mount NEWBE /mnt
bootadm install-bootloader -f -R /mnt

Or wait with update till the repo has loader package more recent than 

Packaging Date: 28 September 2019 at 01:31:17 
          Size: 2.26 MB
          FMRI: 
pkg://openindiana.org/system/boot/[email protected],5.11-2019.0.0.19070:20190928T013117Z

or /boot/gptzfsboot more recent than (use installboot -i /boot/gptzfsboot):
Extended version string: 1.1-2019.09.20.1

I’ll update installboot soon to make such error impossible in future.

sorry about the mess,
toomas
