Thanks for the prompt reply. The guest, which is Solaris 10u7, was
created by:
virt-install -n birdlip \
--bridge=e1000g1 \
--cdrom=/dev/dsk/c1t0d0s2 \
--file=/virtuals/birdlip/birdlip.vmdk \
--file-size=10 \
--hvm \
--mac=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX \
--os-type=solaris \
--os-variant=solaris10 \
--ram=2048 \
--vcpus=2 \
--vnc
This gives rise to the following xml file
<domain type='xen' id='-1'>
<name>birdlip</name>
<uuid>9bc574dc-4f3a-790d-65bf-d1e4cfb99c02</uuid>

I did a standard install using ttya as console (I only need tty access not
GUI).
This is all on a UFS filesystem.
The hardware is an X4150 with 2 quad core Xeon and 8Gb core, using
hardware raid on 6 disks to give a 400Gb raid10 store.
