Christian,

I think you would have run into 6413235, but the problem seems to be
before that.  It seems like your solaris2 partition reaches beyond what
the installers thinks is the disk size.

The solaris2 partiton ends at:
Rsect + Numsect == 134889512 + 21411936 = 156301448

However the disk only has 63 * 255 * 9729 = 156296385
