Hi There, 

I was following the upgrade process from 2008.05 to 2009.06 

I executed 

$ pfexec pkg install SUNWinstall-libs 

watched the process begin and walked away. 

When I returned I the machine was not responsive either remotely via SSH or via 
the console. I had no option but to reset the machine. 

2008.05 Boot Environment (original)
Boot process begins and then suddenly loops

Opensolaris init exited on fatal signal 12: restarting automatically

Because i didnt run the 

$pfexec pkg image-update

The creation of the new boot env wont allow me to boot either. If I try ot boot 
it into 

opensolaris_satic:11:11:2009

it comes up with svcadm errors and gives me a prompt for ctrl d for system 
maintenance. So essentially I have two non bootable boot environments. 

I am using an AMD Athlon x2 which I have seen some issues re SES? assembler 
issues in previous builds. But this is said to have been fixed in build 28.

I have managed to boot into the live CD for 0609 and mount the rpool on disk, 
but am now out of ideas. 

Any help here would be much appreciated.
