Success at last... Just a brief note in case anyone is interested. snv_76 is installed on my MacBook and seems to work fine. Wifi and ethernet both working but required installation of atheros and skge network drivers and running the "update_drv" command to add entries to driver_aliases. Hopefully these will be included in the installation some time soon (?)
Note that I installed directly onto an internal harddrive which had been partitioner with MBR partition table. Solaris installation seems to fail when using a GUID partition table - any chance of this being fixed some time ?? The MacBook does not seem to allow booting from an external USB drive with a MBR partition as the drive never appears as a boot option when powering on with "Option" key held down (of course that could be due to some other reason). This does not seem to make much sense give the MacBook boots fine when the same disk is installed internally !
