I am attempting to upgrade my snv97 install to the snv99 release.
I have followed the instructions at:
http://opensolaris.org/os/project/indiana/resources/rn3/ The pkg image-update
command completes successfully and activates the new Boot Environment without
issue.
On next boot the system hangs just after the copyright banner. I have enabled
debug mode (appending -kv to the line in grub) and the boot process hangs at
"Start to prepare identity map for rmrr"
Here is the text from the debug boot that hadn't scrolled off the screen too
quickly (Hopefully accurately transcribed from a photo!):

Does anybody have any ideas how I might further trouble-shoot the issue? Or
what the problem might be? I appreciate any help/pointers as I am relatively
new to OpenSolaris.
