[Marc Lobelle]

Thanks Udo and Jean Pierre: a small detail:I must be root to do this: where can I find the root pwd of the live image ?

 From a live DVD/USB (beware of the keyboard layout) :

            zpool import -f rpool
            mkdir /tmp/a
            [beadm list] if needed
            beadm mount openindiana /tmp/a
            * make the needed modifications on /tmp/a
            beadm unmount openindiana
            zpool export rpool
