[oi-dev] OI 'hipster' reboot effort

[Gary Gendel]

Thanks for the update  The installation is up and running.  I had one 
last problem where the installation failed with a "File Exists" message.

Since this was a really non-helpful message, I tracked it down to 
/usr/lib/python2.6/vendor-packages/pkg/actions/legacy.py line 92 in the 
previous version (which is now 113):

os.link(pkginfo, linkfile)

This threw an OSError, so I trapped that and rewrote the message to 
include the file name:

try:
     os.link(pkginfo, linkfile)
except OSError as e:
     raise type(e)(str(e) + ": " + linkfile)

The SUNWsmbau  package where no longer installed but it left remnants.

I just wanted let others know in case they run into a similar situation.
