I was testing bootable AI and ran across the issue where pkg -R /a
image-update does nothing to a system that has 2009.06. I have been
able to reproduce this consistently.
Here are the steps:
1. Boot the latest AI image (osol-dev-132-ai-x86.iso) in a VB.
2. Choose the default options. This will result in installing 2009.06
from pkg.opensolaris.org on the disk.
The installed system will not boot due to zpool mismatch.
3. Boot AI image to login prompt. This can be done by dropping into
the grub menu and removing everything after -B.
4. login as root/opensolaris.
5. zpool import -f rpool
6. beadm mount opensolaris /a
7. pkg -R /a set-publisher -P -O http://ipkg.sfbay/dev opensolaris.org
8. pkg -R /a install SUNipkg ( it will report nothing to install)
9. pkg -R /a image-update -v
This exits after printing updating catalog ..and something else
that gets overwritten. Note that pkg -R /a history does not even record
that I have run pkg -R /a image-update
Are there any flags to enable to get more debugging output ?
