Given the "uuidgen" binary has WAY too many libraries, and the uniqueness of 
the UUID doesn't need to be super-special for the installed BE, I put together 
this patch using the existing miniroot tools:


diff --git a/install_help.sh b/install_help.sh
index 7ad5ab1..7095536 100644

   beadm mount omnios /mnt
   ALTROOT=/mnt


I initially tested by invoking the prtconf & echo commands, to make sure the 
resultant UUID looked correct.  I am spinning a bloody ISO as I type this to 
try and make sure it ACTUALLY works.

Thanks,
Dan
