512 MB ram is the absolute minimum amount of memory that is needed for installing OpenSolaris. What kind of video hardware is used in that system? Is that perhaps Intel chipset graphics, that uses part of the system's ram for video memory, reducing the amount of free memory that is available for Solaris? (In that case you could try to configure the amount of video memory reserved by the BIOS for the video hardware to the minimum, e.g. 4MB) -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
