Hi guys,

I'm getting my feet wet with OpenSolaris and I'm trying to run a copy
of Solaris Express Developer Edition (the latest -- b70) in a
Parallels virtual machine on my Mac Mini.

However, it's running painfully slow. The installer need about 7 hours
to finish and the boot process hasn't finished yet although it started
about 20 minutes ago. It's using the hard disk like crazy although it
has 768 MB of RAM. Did I forget to flip any virtual switches? Is there
a bug with b70 in Parallels?

On the other hand, the Indiana developer preview install took about 40
minutes or so and it booted really fast on the same configuration
(Parallels VM with 768 MB of RAM). The *really* strange thing is
Indiana did not remember the passwords I set up in the install...

Thank you,

Andrei Maxim
