Excellent! Thanks again Boris!

Jon,

S10 HVM DomU would be 32-bit at Xen 3.3 Linux Dom0 (64-bit).
Through my experience attempt to load amd64 solaris kernel
always fails. S10 may be also installed in stub domain
at Xen 3.3 Linux Dom0 (64-bit):-

http://bderzhavets.wordpress.com/2008/09/27/getting-stubdom-working-on-xen-33-port-via-httpwwwgitcoderepoxen330-to-centos-52/

However, having Solaris Nevada (say b98) in Dom0
S10 (05/08) HVM will be installed in 64-bit mode via virt-install
by default (and it will cause performance degradation).
S10 (10/08) is supposed to be out in the mid of October.
Sun planned this release to have PV drivers.
Not sure would it work only at Nevada Dom0 or Linux Dom0 also.
Actually, i am not sure would it work anywhere or no ?

Thank you Boris!

I just needed to know if it worked before I kept smashing my head
against a wall trying to make it work. Also, thanks for sharing your
config file.

One more question if you don't mind, does it have to be 64bit on a 64bit dom0?

I've installed S10 (05/08) in HVM DomU (via virt-install)
on Xen 3.3 CentOS 5.2 Dom0 ( port via http://www.gitco.de/repo/xen3.3.0).
 It also runs fine as HVM DomU at Xen 3.3 CentOS 5.2 Dom0
been built from source.
 name = "S10HVM"
builder = "hvm"
memory = "1024"
disk = ['phy:/dev/sdb7,ioemu:hda,w',
'file:/etc/xen/disks/solar10.iso,hdc:cdrom,r']
vif = [ 'type=ioemu,bridge=eth(X)', ]
device_model = "/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
vnc=1
boot="d"
vcpus=1
serial = "pty" # enable serial console
on_reboot   = 'restart'
on_crash    = 'restart'
 It will also run at SNV98 Dom0 with no problems.

Hello List,

Has anybody gotten the x86 version of Solaris 10 running as a HVM
domu, not OpenSolaris.

If so did you take notes or have a config file you'd like to share? :)

Basically, I want to know if it is possible and if so were there any
gotcha's to look out for.

Thanks for any info,

Jon
