I've gotten OpenSXCE installed and I have managed to get zones to work.   It took a

Nice work.   You really should document how you did it.

Thank you. I only had to modify one file to make it work   it was a surprisingly simple fix.   I will definitely document it if my next task succeeds.   I'm going to do a bizarre chain starting at OpenSolaris build 134 and jumping to experimental OpenIndiana 150 for SPARC via IPS, then I will create a zone there on my zones zpool and use it as a template.   I will then detach that zone and go back to OpenSXCE.   I will then clone that zone for use with the real zones.   Having 3 working drives makes this quick and safe. ;)

That plan failed   but!
I got IPS to work on OpenSXCE in order to provision zones.   Now to see if there's not some mismatching of libcs and sys calls that prevent it from booting. ;)


If all of this works, I can share me templates with you if you'd like.

Wish me luck!
