Actually, the problems occur at a much lower level than that, and if I wasn't hacking about at 1am I might have stopped a moment to think it through a bit more. SX11 has a newer version of ZFS. When you install OpenIndiana over the top, it refuses to recognise the disk layout, and wants to either repartition it or blow it all away. I just gave it a go on my hack box and it was an unexpected surprise that put the kybosh on that test a bit too early.
