Mark,
Thank you for explanation. I am not asking why Xen needs Dom0.
I am suggesting to create Solaris 08/07 fully virtualized machine
with technology different from Xen Hypervisor , for example VMware.
It’s pretty easy to create VMware VM for Solaris 11/06 on CentOS 5.0
(Xen disabled). At the same time when I try to to use Xen 3.1 VM Manager
on the CentOS 5.1 to create Solaris 11/06 HVM guest
installation hangs .It will also hang for Solaris 08/07 HVM guest.
Solaris 08/07 HVM guest is easy to install only on SNV76 (78) Dom0.
Functionality from theoretical standpoint is the same.
I believe implementations differ.
