I've not noticed xenified kernel on S10 U6 DVD. and also don't expect S10 U6 kernel to support pv_ops , what is, in general, enough to run in DomU. However, looks like PV drivers are in place (just a guess). Installing S10U6 HVM at Xen 3.3 Ubuntu Hardy Dom0 ( hypervisor backported from Intrepid Release) , i was able to obtain IP via bridge with vif = ['bridge=eth0'] and successfully run installed HVM DomU (32-bit) Notation vif = ['type=ioemu,bridge=eth0'] didn't allow to get IP during DHCP install.

To: [email protected] Date: Saturday, November 8, 2008, 9:35 AM Gurus; I've been running Solaris 10 on a HVM domain on my machine (running SXCE snv_93 x86) for some time now. Now that Solaris 10 Update 6 (10/08) has been released, I tried creating a Paravirtualized Guest domain but got the same error message I got previously... # virt-install -n sol10 -p -r 1560 --nographics -f /dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/sol10 -l /stage/sol-10-u6-> Starting install... Could not find an installable distribution at '/stage/sol-10-u6-ga1-x86-dvd.iso' Domain installation may not have been successful. If it was, you can restart your domain by running 'virsh start sol10'; otherwise, please restart your installation.

Does Solaris 10 Update 6 (10/08) support full paravirtualization on xVM? Warmest Regards Steven Sim _______________________________________________ xen-discuss mailing list [email protected]
