Operating Systems Solaris Jumpstart with ZFS root install Post 302507663 by DukeNuke2 on Thursday 24th of March 2011 12:02:36 PM

try a "standard" sysidcfg first... something basic which is known to work. maybe there is a problem in your sysidcfg which we are not able to find...
also i consider to use JET, which is a jumpstart framework (i use this for my installations) and very easy to handle. but you'll need version 4.8 for solaris 10 update 9 to work properly. on the download pages is only 4.7 available but maybe 4.8 is a MOS download... haven't tried this yet!
