How much memory did you give the virtual machine.  The gui installer
needs 768mb at a minimum.

As for the xserver, your looking at Xorg and I'm not an expert on that.
My understanding is that it should "just work" but obviously it didn't
for you.

google is your friend (or rather the Sun website search) :-)

This is based on build 55b which was developer express 1.  If nothing
else, you could boot this and check out the xorg.conf and use it in your
b60 image.  I'm not 100% sure there is an xorg.conf in that image but I
suspect there might be.

Cheers,
