Hi Andrew,
that is correct - only default territories are available
on 'non-global' LiveCD - this is because of space issues.
If you want to pick up other than default territory,
you need to use 'global' version of LiveCD.

it is likely that existence of EFI partition is the reason

I am glad to hear that it worked.
Since Solaris partition was already marked active,
the fact that Solaris fdisk failed when trying this
shouldn't prevent installer from successfully finishing
