I tried this on Solaris 10. I am moderately competent in sysadmin and did manage. Had to make a few minor fixes to the shell scripts.

1) Scripts fail because the following construct does not work with the bourne shell:
export JAVA_HOME="/usr/java"
Maye you should rewrite them this way:
JAVA_HOME="/usr/java"
export JAVA_HOME

or else make them bash shells (probably the default on linux and this is why linux installs work), i.e. add as line one
#!/usr/bin/bash

2) Then in install-lams.sh there was cp solaris doesn't understand
# cp -rv assembly/lams.ear ${DEFAULT_DIR}/deploy
cp -r assembly/lams.ear ${DEFAULT_DIR}/deploy

3) Finally the JAVA_OPTS in ./run-lams.sh do not go to run.sh. Since I am quite clueless about scripts I don't know why. To safe time, I just used the JBOSS run.sh and fixed line 141:
JAVA_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx512m -Dprogram.name=$PROGNAME"
#JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dprogram.name=$PROGNAME"

Details are here, but don't take my writing for gospel or anyhing... I am not a programmer nor a sysadmin...

PS: I'll go over this wiki page and add some more stuff as I will continue playing with lams 2.1
