Re: [Xen-users] opensolaris domU?
Hey, thanks for the reply.
I'm not using Sun's Xen. I don't have a readily available solaris box
either. I was hoping someone knew a method to setup opensolaris under
xen without solaris? I think it would work in a HVM setup (which i don't
have readily available either) The other option is setting up a
dedicated box like mentioned on sun's xen site. and making an image from
that. I tried doing that in vmware but it wouldn't even boot after i
rebuilt the kernel.
Any ideas? Did you setup a dedicated box like they have mentioned on
their site and just copy the resulting image to a linux box?

I'm just wondering if anyone has success with a modified solaris dom0

This is how we brought up Solaris domU, and we've done sporadic testing
since. I'm not sure, but you may need to turn off checksumming via
ethtool on the Linux dom0. Also, if you're not using Sun's version of
Xen, you may experience instability with SMP domUs (this is related to
writable pagetables). But it should certainly work in theory... if you
manage to get it working, we'd appreciate hearing about your
experiences...
