Hi John.

I tried that and I got an error on another file,which I ended up wiping 
it with null as well.

That seemed to work, except I got another error about the bootloader not 
getting installed correctly.  The fix for that is to normally use the 
updated bootloader:

#/tmp/hipster/sbin/bootadm update-archive -R /tmp/hipster/

ld.so.1: bootadm: fatal: libc.so.1: version 'ILLUMOS_0.37' not found 
(required by file /tmp/hipster/sbin/bootadm)
ld.so.1: bootadm: fatal: libc.so.1: open failed: No such file or directory

thanks,

Geoff
