Re: [indiana-discuss] Can't Install OOO in os0811_99

Hi! The virtual disk is dynamic. I've enabled audio (AC97) and USB+USB2.0. Rest is default settings (RAM = 512 MB and dynamic disk). Gilles Dave Miner wrote: Gilles Gravier wrote: OK. Well... I decided to try that. I can boot the SNV99 DVD in VirtualBox, but when I launch gui-install it does DVD/CDROM accesses... but nothing happens. I've left it like that for an hour. Still no gui installer on the screen. I've tried launching pfexec gui-install in a command prompt... no error messages... but still no gui on the screen for installation... strange. I'll leave it on for another hour before I decide that GUI-INSTALL on b99 CDs/DVDs is broken. It's run quite successfully on many systems, but we have seen some issues with VirtualBox.  What is the VM configuration?  Is it a new virtual disk (dynamic or static)? Dave Gilles. W.

Gilles.     Hi Giles, Thanks for the reply.  But here is the "catch": I did NOT have problem installing OOO in os0811_99 when it was "image-updated" FROM PREVIOUS BUILDS. I have problem installing OOO only when the system was a "fresh installation" from the build 99 LiveDVD (i.e., it has not been image-updated). In other words, as far as build 99 is concerned: (Fresh Installation from LiveDVD) != (image-update from previous build) Sun's xVM VirtualBox is really the greatest thing since the sliced bread.  If hard disc space is a concern, you can use a USB HD to install the vdi file.  Please do a fresh install from the build 99 image.  You will discover a few new problems that you would not have seen from image-updates. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list indiana-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss   --            *Gilles Gravier, CISSP *Chief Open Source Ambassador EMEA <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Voice :     +41 (22) 999 9051 Mobile :     +41 (79) 472 8437 Fax :     +41 (860) 79 472 8437 E-mail :     [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>           *Sun Microsystems* 12 route des Avouillons CH-1196 Gland Switzerland http://www.sun.com/security/          SunIM :     [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://im-amer.sun.com/> ICQ :     77488526 <http://www.icq.com/whitepages/about_me.php?Uin=77488526> AIM :     gillesgravier <aim:goim?screenname=gillesgravier> Y! :     ggravier <http://profiles.yahoo.com/ggravier> Jabber :     [EMAIL PROTECTED]/Gaim <http://www.jabber.org/> Skype :     ggravier <callto://ggravier> MSN :     [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://members.msn.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Google :     [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> This mail was sent through Sun EdgeMail using Mozilla Thunderbird <http://www.mozilla.com/thunderbird/> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list indiana-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss --   Gilles Gravier, CISSP Chief Open Source Ambassador EMEA Voice : +41 (22) 999 9051 Mobile : +41 (79) 472 8437 Fax : +41 (860) 79 472 8437 E-mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED]   Sun Microsystems 12 route des Avouillons CH-1196 Gland Switzerland http://www.sun.com/security/ SunIM : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ : 77488526 AIM : gillesgravier Y! : ggravier Jabber : [EMAIL PROTECTED]/Gaim Skype : ggravier MSN : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Google : [EMAIL PROTECTED] This mail was sent through Sun EdgeMail using Mozilla Thunderbird
