Hi, thank you for blog entry, it was rather helpful. I am running a Linux Dom0 and have succeeded in installing Opensolaris to some extent. The install went fine, I copied boot_archive and the kernel but on reboot I get the following error:
[root at harmless xen]# xm create -c sol Using config file "./sol". Started domain solaris v3.1.2-92.1.13.el5 chgset 'unavailable' SunOS Release 5.11 Version snv_86 64-bit Copyright 1983-2008 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved.

Mounting ZFS filesystems: (6/6) I can log on as root, but the system isn't very useful this way, and I don't know enough about solaris to fix it. my xen.cfg file for this looks like this: name = "solaris" memory = 1024 vif = [ '' ] disk = [ 'file:/data/xen/solaris.img,0,w' ] kernel = '/etc/xen/unix' ramdisk = '/etc/xen/boot_archive' extra = '/platform/i86xpv/kernel/amd64/unix -B zfs-bootfs=rpool/27' on_poweroff = 'destroy' on_reboot = 'destroy' on_crash = 'destroy' If there is any help, I would appreciate it. Many thanks. .peter -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
