Installing other distributions in parallel to OpenSolaris in the same
pool, e.g. Milax. Belenix, etc.
Also I would like this feature to reinstall for example a snapshot of
the rootfs which I saved on another medium.

OK, then I'll create an RFE for that feature.

If you are just attempting to create a BE on a different pool
based on an existing BE you can use the "beadm create -p" option
to create that new BE on a different pool. This uses zfs
send/receive under the covers to copy the BE from one pool to
another.
Short answer: Right now there is no interface in beadm to allow
creating an empty boot environment.

Hi,
with lucreate in Solaris I can create an empty boot environment and
use a flashimage to install that boot environment. Can I do something
similar with beadm in OpenSolaris?
e.g.
create an empty boot environment and use zfs send/receive to populate
that boot environment
Or can this be done manually (if yes, how?)?
