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 
/platform/i86xpv/kernel/drv/amd64

bash-3.2# modload /platform/i86xpv/kernel/drv/amd64/vboxdrv

bash-3.2# modinfo | grep vbox
269 fffffffff85fa000   f230 268   1  vboxdrv (VirtualBox Driver)

bash-3.2# VirtualBox  &
[1] 744

VirtualBox starts up but can not start a VirtualMachine because the 
vboxdrv driver does not work:

|VirtualBox kernel driver not installed.

VBox status code: -1908 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED).

Result Code:    0x80004005
Component:      Console
Interface:      IConsole {d5a1cbda-f5d7-4824-9afe-d640c94c7dcf}|


I really hope that, now that Innotek was bought by Sun, it will be 
possible in a future version to use VirtualBox also in a xVM Dom0
