To MANUALLY create a vnc session, see http://www.taiter.com/blog/2009/02/opensolaris-200811-paravirtual.html#more (or the other references you already found, OTHER than John Levon's blog), starting from the lines starting with "mkdir .vnc" > > Along the IP lines, when is do a "vncviewer 10.0.2.1" from dom0, here is what > I get (failure): During installation, Opensolaris live CD automatically creates a vnc session with a random password. See John Levon's blog on how to find out the password. As I recall doing something like xenstore-ls /local/domain/$domid/guest will dump domU's IP address (if you have DHCP on that network, like when using virbr0 bridge) and vnc password. Both methods (manual and automatic vnc creation) can be used to install Opensolaris domU with GUI. -- Fajar _______________________________________________ xen-discuss mailing list [email protected]
