My rule of thumb is:

If there are any non- SUNW* packages, don't even think about upgrading.

That should not matter except for things which support filesystems,

Sometimes, upgrading works. More often, it breaks.

Works mosst of th etime for me (I upgrade +/- 10 systems using jumpstart
every other week)
