Hi all: I'm trying to get Solaris 11 running in a SmartOS KVM zone. However, I'm seeing the error "couldn't find suitable memory target".
Here's a screenshot http://imgur.com/AU6AeQ8 To get that level of detail, I set debug=all, and set pager=1 in the grub menu before booting it up. While I passed -k to the the $multiboot $kern $kern, a reading of the grub2 source shows me that it is grub which has faced the error before even going to hand over control to the Solaris kernel. FYI, here's the equivalent on Solaris 11 on VMWare Fusion, where I was able to install Solaris 11 successfully : http://imgur.com/B2eWKYe Here's how I'm starting the KVM instance.
