Jordan,

I don't think so since the boot_archive files are not delivered by any
pkg.  Thus, there is nothing in the change-variant process which will
touch those files.

Thanks,

/boot/solaris/bin/create_ramdisk is installed by SUNWckr, right?

Will changing variants not affect SUNWckr?

Jordan,

Maybe I'm not understanding the bug's evaluation but it seems to say
that the problem is caused by the presence of boot archive files.

Jerry


Jerry,

It is. However, bootadm(1M) infers the existence of boot archives from the existence of /boot/solaris/bin/create_ramdisk. If we remove the latter from a zone, then bootadm(1M) won't try to update boot archives in the zone's root filesystem. Changing package variants during ipkg p2v should remove /boot/solaris/bin/create_ramdisk and thus prevent bootadm(1M) from updating ipkg-branded zones' boot archives.

Thanks,
Jordan
