The ISOs are made for fresh installs. Yes, updates from /dev are not 
possible. What should I do? Stop any work until we can release 
something, which can be updated to /hipster from /dev? I know about this 
problem. But I have a million of other to solve. If it bugs you so much, 
go ahead, do the work and test updates.

I have several dozens installations which has never been OpenSolaris or 
OI /dev. I'd better fix more urgent issues - e.g. OO inability to work 
with ODT. Or rsyslog CVEs...
