Solaris 10 Zone Issues

Hi colleagues,

I created a zone with following parameters
as shown in the zonecfg output:

#zonecfg -z lab
zonecfg:lab> info
zonepath: /export/home/zones/lab
autoboot: true
pool: lab
inherit-pkg-dir:
        dir: /lib
inherit-pkg-dir:
        dir: /platform
inherit-pkg-dir:
        dir: /sbin
inherit-pkg-dir:
        dir: /usr
inherit-pkg-dir:
        dir: /opt
net:
        address: 192.168.0.160/24
        physical: hme0

Upon booting the zone I constantly keep getting errormessages.

Upon installation of the zone the procedure fails to create
following files:

/etc/inittab
/etc/mnttab
/etc/passwd
/etc/shadow

Therefore the zone fails to boot.

uname -a:
SunOS my-host 5.10 Generic_118822-02 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraAX-MP

/etc/release: Solaris 10 3/05 s10_74L2a SPARC

Help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
