But have decided to take it to the next step by using xvm to run my virtual machines. I have taken a guide from BDerzhavets at this site : <a href="http://bderzhavets.blogspot.com/2008/12/xvm-on-opensolaris-2008.html">http://bderzhavets.blogspot.com/2008/12/xvm-on-opensolaris-2008.html</a></p> <p>First step is to open package manager and find the &ldquo;vitalization&rdquo; grouping. Install everything in this group. You&rsquo;ll probably find some packages are already installed.</p> <p>Next you&rsquo;ll need to add the xvm kernel to the grub startup menu (menu.1st). This bit is a bit of blind faith from my perspective - its a shame that the xvm kernel package doesn&rsquo;t add itself to grub? Anyhow&hellip; You need to add the following as another boot option in the <strong>/rpool/boot/grub/menu.lst</strong> file;</p>
