Thanks to the folks here, I managed to finally make it through the
installation process, although I did have a couple of kernel panics and
crashes (and some really stupid mis-configuration problems on my part).
However, yesterday I had a kernel panic and crash after having
installed all the stubs for all the standard third-party packages, and
was in the process of exiting /stand/sysinstall.
Since the machine was configured to save crash dumps, I now actually
have one sitting in /var/adm/crash (although this may not be all that
useful, since the kernel is the default GENERIC, and I haven't had a
chance to rebuild it with just the stuff I want/need or with a full
symbol table, etc....).
Anybody interested in taking a look at this crash dump and trying to
figure out what went wrong?

Unix is like a wigwam -- no Gates, no Windows, and an Apache inside.
Unix is very user-friendly. It's just picky who its friends are.
