Installing on xVM VirtualBox 1.6
Posted: May 28, 2008 5:08 AM

Hello all,

Firstly, congratulations for the new build of OSol, I am looking forward to use it now.

My question is - I downloaded the ISO file, and followed instructions as stated here - http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/IPS/virtualbox.html (Its a nice tutorial for those who are already Virtual Box users). The point where I select the default language and keyboard, then it shows "Reading ZFS. Done" and doesn't go ahead.

I have alloted 8 GB for VDI (dynamically expandable) and 256 MB RAM, on Windows XP Professional SP2 having 512 MB RAM, 3.0 Ghz Intel Pentium 4.

Can anyone help in this regard?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Varun

Would 256 MB won't suffice?

Helpful

Because Open Solaris RAM requeriments are superiors and the minimum needed is 512 MB
