Doing a live-boot with oi_147 under VMware Workstation (I've tried 7.0.1 and 7.1.1) causes NWAM to get exceptionally confused, as per http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/5489/badoi.png

The system gets a DHCP lease, then decides the network device has been unplugged, then repeats this every 10 seconds or so.

OpenSolaris 134 works fine, doing the same thing. (ie it gets and keeps a DHCP lease).

I was running VMware with most everything on default, except the networking set to "bridged", from the default of "NAT".
