It seems to be my day for pkg problems.
I'm trying to image-update my SPARC system from build #123 to #124.
I get the following:
ri...@sunk:~$ pkg authority
PUBLISHER TYPE STATUS URI
opensolaris.org (preferred) origin online
http://ipkg.sfbay/dev/
ri...@sunk:~$ pfexec pkg image-update
DOWNLOAD PKGS FILES XFER (MB)
Completed 1518/1518 53088/53088 1115.4/1115.4
Segmentation Fault (core dumped)
ri...@sunk:~$ pkg version
77e92d348aaf
ri...@sunk:~$ pfexec file core
core: ELF 32-bit MSB core file SPARC Version 1, from 'beadm'
I also tried a simple:
ri...@sunk:~$ pfexec beadm create bug-6186
Segmentation Fault (core dumped)
From the release notes, this appears to be:
11221 beadm create core dumps on OpenSolaris 122 SPARC
http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=11221
When using builds 122 or 123, an attempt to create a new boot
environment (BE) via beadm(1M) or indirectly through "pkg
image-update" may result in a "segmentation fault".
Work-around: Boot into an earlier boot environment and then
manually create the desired BE from there. For example, to
image-update from build 122 or 123 the following set of
commands can be used
<reboot into the earlier BE>
u...@host$ pfexec beadm create -e <name of build 122 BE> \
<name of new BE>
u...@host$ pfexec beadm mount <name of new BE> /mnt
u...@host$ pfexec pkg -R /mnt image-update
u...@host$ pfexec beadm unmount <name of new BE>
u...@host$ pfexec beadm activate <name of new BE>
At this point, the new BE can be booted into.
The problem is I don't have any earlier boot environments I can boot into:
ri...@sunk:~$ beadm list
BE Active Mountpoint Space Policy Created

Anything I can do with my existing machine to fix/workaround this or
do I have to reinstall everything again?
Thanks.
