Has anyone tried running Leopard or one of the hackintosh versions, Kalway or Leo4all, as domU where OpenSolaris x86 is dom0? If so, does it work? Thanks. This message posted from opensolaris.org

It will not work except as hvm if it works at all, but the chipsets which are emulated would all have to be Intel, this is not the case. There''s no finding support in this matter everyone will tell you the same, we cannot test such things, if you do it we will not go down with you. Again, nothing personal, but there''s many Sun engineers on this list, and for professional reasons it''s better for Apple and Sun to have lukewarm correspondence than to fight... it''d be nice if Apple just bought out Sun to be honest. For your sake don''t bring it up, it will only bring pain. PS: domU typically means running a pvm, aka modified guest, the XNU sources are there but there isn''t even precursory support for hosting Xen, let alone allowing in-kernel virtualization. James

Like running the letters together I see... peeve but the X is a roman numeral, it must have a space before it. MacOS X or Mac OS X or Mac OS 10.x (3/4/5+) Back to Xen/OpenSolaris, it ain''t gonna happen even it it where legal, the cogs are non-existent. Cheers... James On Jun 3, 2008, at 7:36 AM, James C.
