I'm not using virt-install at all - I'm creating a config file for the domain
(see the original post) and trying to start it when I receive the error
message. The kernel and initrd are on my dom0, so ZFS support is irrelevant -
I'm not trying to boot using pygrub, virt-install, or anything like that from
ZFS.
The issue seems to be the newer 64-bit Opensolaris kernels. I switched to the
32-bit kernel and it boots just fine - the 64-bit one crashes with the
Unhandled page fault. Not sure why, but this isn't too critical for me right
now, as I don't really need anything more than about 1 GB of RAM. Still,
something is wrong, there - perhaps it's fixed in a later version of Xen.
Now I'm running into an issue where the osol disc that I'm trying to boot from
won't recognize the install media. I've tried booting with the following
extra= lines in my config file:
extra="/platform/i86xpv/kernel/unix -B console=ttya,livemode=text"
extra="/platform/i86xpv/kernel/unix -B console=ttya,install_media=cdrom"
with no success - the system always fails to find the install media. In the
case of adding install_media=cdrom to list of argument, the Opensolaris media
tries to resolve "cdrom" to an http server, which, of course, fails. I've
tried various combinations of disk configurations for the ISO, and none of them
seem to work. I'm using the osol ai ISOs right now, so I'm wondering if
there's something in here that doesn't work properly - I'll try switching to
the regular ones here as soon as they finish downloading.
