    Thanks Dan, and just before I was about to migrate my kvms across to
    r151014 too!

    ; I chose option #2:

    ; 	https://github.com/omniti-labs/omnios-build/commit/0268a2ff04b1cbed2324054cb97a0f36c58989b0
    ;
    ; There's now an update for r151014 that has the updated system/kvm (qemu/userland) and driver/virtualization/kvm (kernel KVM driver) on the repo server.  A "pkg update" will update your packages AND boot archive without.  I do recommend, however, you power down your KVM instances and "pkill qemu" prior to running the update.
    ;
    ; Along with this update is a small fix to onu(1) for illumos developers who are working with r151014 as their base system for ONU-ing.
    ;
    ; Thank you all again for your patience,
    ; Dan
