Running OpenSolaris-0906 using KVM on debian sid (32bits) under AMD athlon processor.

I successfully running opensolaris-0906 using KVM on debian sid (32bits) under AMD athlon processor.

Some tips are shown,

1. Using linux-imange-2.6.30 is good. Unfortunately using linux-image-2.6.32-4 and linux-image-2.6.32-5(evaluated in 2010.05.05),the guest os of OpenSolaris 100% hangs up after installation.
2. OpenSolaris needs more than 512M bytes memory.If not, the OpenSolaris hangs in its splash screen with no error messages.
3. Disk driver should be ide, and vga driver should be cirrus. If not, one cannot continue installation.
4. [2010.05.02 added] rtl8139 emulation of qemu works. The e1000 emulation does not work with OpenSolaris guest.

The virt-install command I used as below,

sudo virt-install --connect=qemu:///system -n osol-01 --ram 1024 --cdrom=osol-0906-x86.iso --disk /var/lib/libvirt/images/osol-01.img,device=ide,size=10,format=raw --bridge=,model=rtl8139 --vnc --hvm --accelerate --soundhw ac97
