    Upgraded my production server this afternoon and basically everything
    went well except for a minor annoyance: /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc was
    left untouched causing a system which had to be manually booted.

    1) Followed update instructions to the letter.
    2) Rebooted still using grub.
    3) When rebooted did beadm activate r151022 to replace grub with bsd
    loader. No errors reported.
    4) Did a second reboot and now the walls came tumbling down on me since
    bootenv.rc was not replaced (new one for bsd loader was put beside as
    bootenv.rc.new) so bsd loader complained about syntax errors in
    bootenv.rc and stopped in the boot environment.
    5) To boot I did the following from the boot prompt:
       ok load /platform/i86pc/kernel/amd64/unix
       ok load -t rootfs /platform/i86pc/amd64/boot_archive
       ok boot
    6) Next cp /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc.old &&
            cp /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc.new /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc
    7) Reboot

    New bsd loader active, r151022 active, and system boots using loader
    scripts.
