My iSCSI target is looking good on the local host.  It appears in format and is 
labeled:

4. c0t600144F000144FF38FCE49EDDF790005d0 <SUN-COMSTAR-1.0-100.00GB>
          /scsi_vhci/s...@g600144f000144ff38fce49eddf790005

Specify disk (enter its number): 4
selecting c0t600144F000144FF38FCE49EDDF790005d0
[disk formatted]

So I assigned it to an LDOM guest as the boot device.  The LDOM sees it and 
starts it's network installation of OpenSolaris.  Then we fail out during the 
installation:

<OM Apr 24 16:07:58> Ignoring c6d0 because of bad Geometry
<AI Apr 24 16:08:08> No Disks found on the target system
<AI Apr 24 16:08:08> Target validation failed

So I issue the format command from within the guest LDOM that is booted off a 
miniroot at this point:

# format
Searching for disks...done


AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
       0. c6d0 <Unknown-Unknown-0001-100.01GB>
          /virtual-devi...@100/channel-devi...@200/d...@0
Specify disk (enter its number): 0
selecting c6d0
[disk formatted, no defect list found]
Note: capacity in disk label is smaller than the real disk capacity.
Select <partition> <expand> to adjust the label capacity. 

So from within the LDOM guest, my drive (iSCSI target) has bad geometry?  How 
do I fix this issue?  When I issue partition, expand, label I get:

partition> label
Ready to label disk, continue? y

Warning: error writing EFI.
Label failed.
