OK, latest in a loooong trail of errors with no information. I've finally gotten a new BE created on another drive, run liveupgrade on it to bring it from sol10u3 to sol10u8
I luactivate sol10u8
lustatus shows the sol10u8 as the active one
init 6
system just starts into 10u3 again.
I'm pasting in a lot of information, sorry, but trying to forestall the 10 messages asking for the info

Reason: code tags, please...
Your boot device in the OBP still has you booting from the first disk, if you update the boot-device you should boot from the second disk ( the U8 BE ).
My incliniation would be to luactivate again, then check boot-device. If it is not updated then manually update.
I've run luactivate about 5x thus far and it's not changing it. Thanks will try.

OK! I did format -e to clear the efi formatting (tried to do zfs on sol10u3, realized I couldn't) on c0t1d0 and did an lucreate on c0t1d0 (rather than t2). Rebooted to IT just fine. Maybe on this old 4500 I can't boot to c0t2.
Now to try luupgrade and see if it breaks it, in fine luupgrade tradition...
Thanks a million for keeping me moving forward/around...
