Ken, Thank you for the reply, I have already tried the pfexec pkg rebuild-index; pfexec pkg refresh --full ; pfexec pkg image-update -nv This is what gives the errors I am getting.
And fresh install is not a realistic option at the moment, due to their being no easy way to rollback to 148 if it gives more problems than it fixes (or doesn't fix.)

Install oi_151a8. You can update from that point. If that is not preferred, you can follow these notes from the wiki: http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Upgrading+OpenIndiana Notes: 1. pfexec pkg rebuild-index 2. pfexec pkg refresh --full 3. pfexec pkg image-update ~ Ken Mays On Sunday, October 27, 2013 5:58 AM, John McEntee <jmcen...@stirling-dynamics.com> wrote: Trying to upgrade from verison 148 to the latest I get the following error.
