Last relatively stable build is snv_117. After that nobody
want to go further. We all desperately wait for snv_121, so
we could see improvements. 118, 119 and 120 has some critical
errors. Even announcement form Sun engineers was about that.

My sugesstion - just wait couple days to appear snv_121. Until
that time use 117 or you could try 118 - some people has good
experience with that build. I personally did not (bunch of
reasons).

Subject: [osol-discuss] Problems getting snv_119 to activate

Hi all. I'm trying to get my new SCXE BE to activate.

I created a new BE titled snv_119 from snv_117 and performed a
LiveUpgrade on it.
No apparent errors and everything appears to have gone just fine.

-bash-3.2# lustatus
Boot Environment Is Active Active Can Copy
Name Complete Now On Reboot Delete Status
-------------------------- -------- ------ --------- ------ ----------
snv_117 yes yes no no -
snv_119 yes no yes no -
-bash-3.2#

Thats after running luactivate. When I init 6, it goes right back into
snv_117. I've already disabled fast reboots. When I do "reboot -fe
snv_119" is fast reboots into snv_119 but then I get an error about
the boot-archive service not running and It wants me to boot into
failsafe.

I had a similar problem upgrading and that was even when upgrading to snv_121 from snv_117. The problem was that the new installgrub.findroot needed libfdisk and it was not available in snv_117. I made a quick workaround by copying the library from the newer BE into the older BE and then activated the new BE again.
