Hi, I got openSolaris DVD''s(2 nos) from SUN which released 1 month back. First DVD contain some LIVE images , and Second DVD contain solaris express community Edition b57 .. I have installed solaris express. I searched DVD for XEN but unaible to find.I have downloades sun-xen binary packages from sun site and installed those packages. after installing these packages , i found xen.gz in /boot/ but when booted with this kernel, system always reboots. Q 1) this build (b57) contains XEN or not ? If yes then how to install it ? Q 2) If not ,what packages need to download and install to get xen running? I having experiance with xen on linux system.
