Dan, I am not sure how you constructed your image but if it booted on real HW or in a VM, then it should boot in an lx zone (modulo any services which need to be disabled because they don't work or don't make sense inside a zone). If you are creating an image in some way that you've never actually tried booting for real, then it's hard to know what you need. I would start from a minimal install that runs fine inside a VM, then that tar it up and use that as a starting point to install your lx zone.
