[OpenIndiana-discuss] OI hipster Text Install USB 2023.10 fails

[Olaf Bohlen]

Hi,

I wonder if someone else has seen this on the OI hipster text
install 2023.10 image.

I try to install a SunFire X4270M2 (which was successful in the
past with older installers). After entering root password and user
credentials, then installer fails with the following:

I guess it's a python migration bug, however I would have expected
someone else having that issue...

Thanks for comments and suggestions...
