Just two gotchas so far, creating a new boot environment from
OpenIndiana (which boot environment I plan to maintain and nuture).
The first is that it trashes your nsswitch.conf again. I've had this
before, so I knew exactly what had happened, but it fundamentally meant
I couldn't access any NFS filesystems. It changed it from a slightly
modified NIS version, with the addition of compat to the passwd line and
dns to the hosts and ipnodes lines, back to a raw files version. Make
sure you keep a copy of your working one.
The second is the run of /usr/lib/time-slider-cleanup four times an hour
from crontab, which is now sending me email all the time. This script
has disappeared, and I'm not sure what the replacement is or if it's
necessary any more. I'd appreciate thoughts on this.
Some interesting messages (on my Sun Ultra 40 M2 Workstation):
Nov 16 11:56:05 wonky genunix: [ID 484473 kern.notice] NOTICE: Not

daemon.warning] GLib-GObject-WARNING: g_object_set_property: construct

None of these seems to be a major problem since the machine is working
fine, but I'm curious, especially about the display warnings. Googling
doesn't come up with anything interesting.
Cheers,
Rob
