OpenIndiana

I have not used Solaris in some time so I thought it would be interesting to get OpenSolaris installed under kvm to test out. However, this has stopped being produced, but there is a fork called OpenIndiana.

I downloaded the Live dvd for desktops and booted that up under kvm, I have given the vm a qcow2 format disk to install to.

Once the OS boots up there is an option to install to disk, this will take you through a few install questions and then install to disk.
