Hi Rich,

Are you using the i386 or amd64 downloads, AFAIK you must use the amd64 download
if you're using that chipset (which AFAIK the Ultra 20 is...)

My downloaded file is called:

        VirtualBox-opensolaris-amd64-1.5.51-r28040-beta1.bz2
                               ^^^^^

Also, if you are using /usr/bin/VirtualBox you don't need to set PATH and
LD_LIBRARY_PATH since they are set in that script already.

HTH,

Darren.
