What I've come up with so far is:


virt-install --paravirt --name dom1 --ram 6144 --nographics \
--os-type=solaris \
--network bridge=e1000g0,capped-bandwidth=200M \
--disk path=/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s4,driver=phy
--location /isos/osol-200906.iso


... what I'm not happy about:
location  - I want to use a DVD disc in my DVD drive, not an ISO image
disk path - how do I tell it to use an entire disk (or fdisk partition),
           not just a slice?
cpu       - I want to set the limit to 2 CPUs.


I assume your using stock bits?  What you have above contains
params which are part of a newer virt-install which is being
putback shortly.

   virt-install --help


For the disk and cdrom path, you should use p0.
e.g. here's using a cdrom, with 2 vcpus which I
just tested on stock b118 bits (don't have an extra
disk I can install onto on this machine)
  -bash-3.2# virt-install -p -n dom --vcpus=2 -r 800 --nographics 
--noautoconsole -f /export/disk0 -s 8 -l /dev/dsk/c1t0d0p0

so a -f /dev/dsk/c0t1d0p0 should do it for the disk. Just don't specify the 
wrong
disk ;-)
