problem with virt-install

I''ve just tried to create domU on xVM
I''ve used virt-install command. But I got this error:

virt-install --nographics -n domuV1 -p -f /tmp/domuV1.img -s 2 -r 1024 -l
/sol-nv-b89-x86-dvd.iso

Re: problem with virt-install

There is OpenSolaris on dom0.
I''ve tuned xend:
svccfg -s xvm/xend setprop config/default-nic="bnx"
svcadm refresh xvm/xend
svcadm restart xvm/xend

and rerun the virt-install, but it returned error again:

virt-install --nographics -n domu1 -p -f /domu1.img -s 12 -r 1024 -l
/sol-nv-b89-x86-dvd.iso -d
