I have no clue which image you used and I'm not sure what you did to end up in a situation
where the installer would try to download the grub2 packages over the net which are actually
on the installation ISO, so they don't have to be downloaded.
I also just verified that by installing the latest sparc64 ISO inside an LDOM in offline mode
and grub2 was installed without any issues with no package mirror being set up.
