[indiana-discuss] Build-93 Image-Update?

[Thiago Pereira]

Dan,

Try to log in your first BE and mount the new one:

$ mount -F zfs rpool/ROOT/opensolaris-2 /mnt

Next, update the GRUB configuration on your ZFS boot device(s) using


$ /mnt/boot/solaris/bin/update_grub -R /mnt"

reboot and you`ll see a new line in GRUB with the correct name of the new
image.
