Hi Jim,

I have fixed problem(s):

a) mountpoint was changed from legacy to some directory (probably due failure of 'zoneadm -z solaruim attach -u' command), reverted
back to 'legacy' for rpool/Zones/solarium/ROOT

b) after a) was fixed, I was able to boot zone and login into, but all publisher set-up was replaced with one from global zone (so,
instead of /dev was /hipster, etc). I have reverted that and ran 'pkg update' which has fixed back everything.

Many thanks for tips.
Best regards.
