[oi-dev] Upgrade trashes boot loader?

[Gordon Ross]

I just upgraded an older OI server to hipster (it was still running
/dev) and after the upgrade it does not seem to have a boot loader.  I
just changed the publisher, and did pkg image-update on a new BE.
Did I do something wrong?

The machine is in an office far away, so I'll have to wait until
someone can put in a bootable usb stick for me.  Anything I should
capture about the state of it before I reinstall the boot loader?

Thanks,
Gordon
