Well, it didn't work with Live Upgrade from S10U3 to NV79b (even after installing the live upgrade packages from the NV79b CD first on S10U3). Perhaps Xen doesn't support Live Upgrade, or hasn't been tested. Anyway, that's a easy workaround. The Real Problem is virt-install fails with NV79b: >> # virt-install --nographics --name=amboy-1 --hvm --file=/dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s6 >> --mac=00:dd:ee:aa:00:01 -location=/export/nv79b.iso --ram=768 >> What would you like to use for the virtual CD image? >> /export/nv79b.iso >> Starting install... >> Creating domain... 0 B 00:18 >> Domain installation still in progress.
