Ok now installation works fine with this config file:

name = 'solaris'
memory = 2048
vcpus = 1
kernel = '/solaris/unix'
ramdisk = '/solaris/boot_archive'
extra = "/platform/i86xpv/kernel/amd64/unix -B console=ttya"
disk = ['file:/var/tmp/oi.iso,6:cdrom,r', 'file:/xen/domains/open-indiana/disk.img,0,w']
vif = [ 'bridge=br0' ]

The installation is finished. Now i'm testing to run the system ... ^

Hi,

I 've tested too and i get the same error.
I'm using the  Debian squeeze package : Xen 4.01. So i think my pygrub is not too old...
I'v copied manually kernel and ramdisk image too but it's not work:

Using config file "/etc/xen/solaris.cfg".

Error: Boot loader didn't return any data!

 
My config:

vcpus       = '1'
memory      = '1024'
name        = 'solaris'

bootloader = "/usr/bin/pygrub"
vif = [ "" ]
disk =  [
       "file:/var/tmp/osol.iso,xvdc:cdrom,r",
       "file:/xen/domains/solaris/disk.img,xvda2,w"
        ]
kernel = "/solaris/unix"
ramdisk = "/solaris/x86.microroot"
extra = "/platform/i86xpv/kernel/amd64/unix - nowin -B install_media=cdrom"

Is the ISO listed first? It must, in order for pygrub to pick it up.

You can also test if pygrub can correctly load kernel and ramdisk from
ISO by running something like

pygrub /path/to/your/openindiana.iso

If you see an error, then probably your pygrub version is too old. Try
MRJ's for example on how to use kernel and ramdisk copied manually
from the ISO.
