Page 5: you cannot upgrade from 2008.05 to 2008.11 from the CD.

Page 8: I would remove the Jumpstart reference; it sets an expectation 
that things are more like Jumpstart than they are.  Also, AI is not 
supporting non-networked installation yet.

Page 10: the reference in the "The installer cannot upgrade..." bullet 
seems wrong; should it not be to "Upgrading an Image"?

Page 11: Recommended disk space is 8 GB; minimum is 2.6 GB.

Page 12: The instructions linked to for booting single-user are no 
longer quite accurate for OpenSolaris, as this has diverged from S10. 
You now have to enter an account name (which can be root, or any other 
privileged account; jack on the CD, or an account created during the 
install will work) before entering the password.

Page 15, Note: We don't create swap slices any more.  ZFS volumes are 
used for swap and dump, if the allocated space permits.

Page 17: rather than repeating space requirements here, why not just 
reference the UI or the table earlier in the doc?

Page 28, step 5: the license text is no longer displayed at boot of the CD.
