Layered Solaris Flash Archives

Hello,

I am trying to understand the details of layered flash archives. The concept is easy enough: you can create a master flash archive and then layer additional differentials ones on top of the master one. But I am unclear in the actual dynamics, particularly on a jumpstart install.

It seems as though you cannot use a full flash archive and a differential one in the same jumpstart install to achieve bare-metal installations, since a flash_install or a flash_update must be specified as the install_type in the profile. Is this the case?
