Description

http://www.nexenta.org/os/ConfiguringNexentaZone

I added some in-line comments on that wiki page showing what happened when I tried it:

  1. It emitted some crufty error messages when installing (although the install succeeded)

  2. It put the boot dir in the wrong place so it wouldn't boot, apparently.

  3. It won't let me log in, so now I'm stuck.

Known issue.

Since the zone is installed, and you cannot zlogin <zonename> , run zlogin -S zonename, which will drop you into safe mode inside the zone. Once in, edit /etc/shadow, so the root entry changes the password from root:* to root:NP. Then logout of the zone, and you should be able to zlogin in correctly.

This page no longer exists since the old Wiki has been disabled. Could you post an updated page?
