SXDE b81 has a bug in that SATA CD-ROM\/DVD-ROMs aren&#8217;t identified properly, so you need to use an older version (pre-b79 it seems) and then upgrade. So:<br \/>\n2. Install SXDE\/SXCE b78 or earlier (I actually used Solaris Express 9\/07, which is based on b70)<br \/>\n3. Install LiveUpdate<br \/>\n4. Install a second instance of the OS and enable it<br \/>\n5. Boot into the second instance<br \/>\n6. Perform a live update of the original installation<br \/>\n7. Re-enable the original install<br \/>\n8. Install the Broadcom Ethernet drivers from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.broadcom.com\/support\/ethernet_nic\/netxtreme_server.php\">here<\/a> if you want the built-in network driver to work (it wont be good enough for xVM because only legacy support is available). <\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it &#8211; for full xVM I disabled the internal Ethernet card and then added a Realtek-based PCI Ethernet card and it works fine. I&#8217;m now in the process of setting up some additional domains (Gentoo, Windows). <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So yesterday I mentioned the new Dell T105 I got on special offer.
