[Xen-users] solaris 11 on xen?

[bofh <goodb0fh@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm using wheezy running kernel 3.2.0 + xen 4.1 as base/dom0.

I want to run a virtual solaris 11 machine.  I was able to install it using:

# cat /etc/xen/solaris11.cfg
name = "solaris11"
vcpus = 4
memory = 2048
kernel = "/home/xen/domains/solaris11/unix"
ramdisk = "/home/xen/domains/solaris11/boot_archive"
extra = "/platform/i86xpv/kernel/amd64/unix -B console=ttya,livemode=text"

# ISO of Solaris mounted as CDROM during initial install
#disk = 
['file:/home/xen/sol-11-1111-text-x86.iso,6:cdrom,r','file://home/xen/domains/solaris11/solaris11-disk.img,0,w']
#
# ISO of Solaris removed after install

disk = ['file://home/xen/domains/solaris11/solaris11-disk.img,0,w']
dhcp        = 'dhcp'
vif         = [ 'mac=00:16:3E:2E:25:68' ]
on_shutdown = "destroy"
on_reboot = "destroy"
on_crash = "destroy"

but on reboot, it doesn't see the drive.  What am I doing wrong?

I get the following:
# xm create -c solaris11.cfg
