I found my notes.  They were from Febuary 2018.  Here they are, in
point form:

    o Changed controller to AHCI+RAID in BIOS
    o Booted OI hipster-20171031 USB stick
    o Started a shell window
    o Got a root shell with `sudo ksh'
    o Found `RAID controller' in `prtconf -v' output
    o Ran: update_drv -a -i 'pci8086,2822.103c.1309.0' ahci
      o Added line to driver_aliases:
        ahci "pci8086,2822.103c.1309.0"
    o Ran the installer
    o Checked new BE:
    # mkdir /tmp/a
    # beadm mount openindiana /tmp/a
    # wc -l /tmp/a/etc/driver_aliases /etc/driver_aliases
        1772 /tmp/a/etc/driver_aliases
        1772 /etc/driver_aliases
      o Files were the same
    o Rebuild the boot archive:
    # bootadm update-archive -v -R /tmp/a
      o No output
    o Umount:
    # beadm unmount openindiana
    o Rebooted from the installer GUI
    o Normal boot of new BE
