Hi I have installed nevada77 in x4200. But i can''t use ''virt-install'' ro create guest domain. Do I need add more pkg? what''s wrong? #virt-install --name xmv-test-1 ram 1024 --nographics --file /export/home/xmv-test-1 --location /export/home/software/snv-solarisdvd-x86-77.iso Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/virt-install", line 657,

Hi unfortunately VirtualBox does not work yet in a Solaris Dom0: I installed VirtualBox beta and it runs fine on bare metal. Unfortunately the necessary driver does not load automatically in a xVM Dom0. It can be loaded manually but it looks like it does not work in a Dom0: bash-3.2# modinfo | grep vbox # this is a one time task: bash-3.2# cp /platform/i86pc/kernel/drv/amd64/vboxdrv

Hi all, I have a Toshiba Tecra M9 and have not been able to boot it dom0. This is running SXDE 01/08, snv79b. After booting under kmdb and setting moddebug=80000000 before booting the Solaris kernel (with help from Dan Mick), I was able to see mac_ether as the last thing loading, right after loading the e1000g driver. I cannot drop into kmdb via F1-A after it hangs. I''ve also

After BFU-ing my system to b75 I ended up with a panicing system when booting into Xen: grub> #---------- ADDED BY BOOTADM - DO NOT EDIT ---------- grub> title Solaris on Xen grub> kernel$ /boot/$ISADIR/xen.gz grub> module$ /platform/i86xpv/kernel/$ISADIR/unix /platform/i86xpv/kernel/$ISADIR/unix -B console=ttyb grub> module$ /platform/i86pc/$ISADIR/boot_archive grub>

Hi, Can anyone explain the following to me? Two zpool devices points at the same data, I was installing osol 2008.11 in xVM when I saw that there already was a partition on the installation disk. An old dataset that I deleted since i gave it a slightly different name than I intended is not removed under /dev. I should not have used that name, but two device links should perhaps not

I have a Sony lib-162 tape library hooked up to an adaptec 39160 scsi controller. I''m running OpenSolaris / Indiana snv_98 with the CADP160 driver installed from a SXCE dvd (snv_99). When I boot without xvm, I can run "mt config" and see the configuration information for the first drive in the library. Under xvm, some scsi operations still work - I can access the changer, move

Hi, I have installed b_78 on a Dell 2950 and booting to bare metal works fine but when I try to boot using the grub entry Solaris xVM it will boot to the point where it displays the uname info and then just stays there. It will not boot past that point. I have enabled VT technology in the BIOS (but only after the installation). Where/what can I look at to trouble shoot this? I am new to xen and

Hi all Opensolaris works perfectly, but I am not able to boot the xvm kernel on this hardware. I added the -k option in grub, but the system hangs before the hostname line without any debug info. I''ve tried snv from b94 to b99, with the same results. If I install Debian with xen kernel I am able to use pvm and hvm guests. What can I do ? thanks Giacomo -- This message posted from

After an "exaustive" search on what may be causing this, I still can''t figure it out.

Hi folks. This is probably a dumb question, but i''m not sure where to start. I have snv_80 running and booting into xVM with no problems. I am wondering if my hardware supports running Windows Vista in a virtual machine? I have a Dell Precision M6300 In particular, I''m wondering if my graphics card and wired/wireless NIC are going to work? Vid card: Nvidia Quadro M1600 wired

Can I run 8/07 fully virtualised on an Intel VT CPU (with a Linux Dom0)? I gave up on 11/06 because of real mode problems. If not, does anyone have an estimate of when this might be possible, if at all? Thanks - Evan

Hi, I have an x86 box with two boot disks. Each disk contains a BE, and I upgrade from one to the other.

Hi All, I successfully installed a 32bit W2003 domu using the following config file (as the CD image wasn''t persistent between reboots, otherwise I would have used virt-install ;-) ) : isk = [ ''file:/images/xvm/w2003/w2003-disk.raw,hdc,w'',''file:/images/isos/en_win_srv_2003_r2_enterprise_cd1. iso,hda:cdrom,r'' ] memory = 512 name = "w2003"
