the only caveat is: PROVIDE A FQDN with your hostname (default: solaris .... just make it solaris.mydomain.com !) otherwise you will be haunted by this message at boot time: "my unqualified hostname solaris unknown, sleeping for retry" by the sendmail agent.

Why on earth the Honorable Engineers at Oracle don't provide you with some preemptive warning, it's a mystery...
