AFAICT, snv78 should support NCQ on ahci.
The ahci.c source contains lots of references to NCQ:
http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/uts/common/io/sata/adapters/ahci/ahci.c
And there is CR 6511021, "ahci driver needs to support SATA NCQ",
which was fixed with snv_76:
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6511021
I guess what you're observing is just the slowness of the solaris
installer, compared to the installers used on the other platforms...
