Has anybody succeded running OpenSolaris under KVM virtualization?
Before I download OS install DVD in vain...
Windows XP obviously runs great
(http://linux.inet.hr/finally-user-friendly-virtualization-for-linux.html,
but I would like to play with other Unix a little bit, without having
to dual boot. Thanks for any info.

There was indeed a report (and a patch) from Michael Riepe to that
effect. -rc2 should contain that patch. Please report to kvm-devel if
it doesn't work.

I tried installing Solaris 10 U2 with Qemu/KVM-8 on -rc2 plus
the latest 8 kernel side KVM patches.
It appeared to work well until about 80% in the installation
where it got stuck after this error is dmesg -
vmwrite error: reg 6802 value 1c334000 (err 17408)
This was on a Core Duo Mac Mini.
