The same thing happens, when you run a lucreate and luupgrade and try to move the second disk over to a new system, I would like to see a backup copy maintained in the alternate locations. it is also good for a disaster recovery situations. at one point I had even submitted a rfe on maintinging alternet root copies of menu.lst issue.
But in the case http://www.sun.com/msg/SUNOS-8000-AK this happens when you go from 10uX to snv_bXX builds, I had also submitted another RFE, in that menu.lst should be maintained going between veriosn, the format of the menu.lst will change over time, so a version no should be incorporated along with a backup copy. back you your second question if you select upgrade the same thing will happen, so my recommendation is to backup whatever data or Desktop files then use remove both root partitions via newfs each partition and run a initial install. if you right click on the background when the language questions are answered on DVD install you should see a terminal and open it to get to the command shell.
