Hi,

this doesn't exactly match your request, but we're running a few OpenSolaris 10
as PV Guests.

I installed them as described in this wiki:
http://wiki.tardis.ed.ac.uk/index.php/OpenSolaris_Xen_domU

Indeed, the installation is a bit tricky, but the result is rock solid ;)

Greetings

Stephan


As an example, one cfg for a PV domU running on xen 3.1.0 i386-pae powered by 
one
single quadcore Xeon X3220.

----------------
vcpus = '1'
name = 'puck'
memory = '768'
vif  = [ 'mac=00:30:48:91:15:9a,bridge=xenbr0', 
'mac=00:30:48:91:15:9b,bridge=xenbr1' ]
#vif = [ '' ]
on_shutdown = 'destroy'
on_reboot = 'destroy'
on_crash = 'destroy'

### init
#disk = [ 'file:/root/OpenSolaris_Xen_Drop2007_07.iso,6:cdrom,r', 
'phy:/dev/vg0/puck-disk,0,w' ]
#kernel = '/root/unix-solaris10'
#ramdisk = '/root/x86.miniroot-solaris10'
#extra = '/platform/i86xpv/kernel/unix -kd - nowin -B install_media=cdrom'

### run
kernel = '/boot/unix-solaris10run'
ramdisk = '/boot/boot_archive-solaris10run'
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/vg0/puck-disk,0,w' ]
