Installing Guest Operating Systems 
Prev Contents Last Next 
This guest operating system has experimental support on the following VMware products:
- VMware Workstation 4.5.2
- VMware GSX Server 3.1
- VMware VirtualCenter 1.1
Be sure to read General Guidelines for All VMware Products as well as this guide to installing your specific guest operating system.
VMware products support only the x86 Platform Edition. You cannot install the SPARC Platform Edition in a VMware virtual machine.
The easiest method of installing the Solaris 10 Operating System in a virtual machine is to use the standardSolaris x86 Platform Edition Installation CD. The notes below describe an installation using the CD. If your VMware product supports it, you mayalso install from a PXE server.
Before installing the operating system, be sure that you have already created and configured a new virtual machine.
Installation Steps- Insert the Solaris x86 Platform Edition Installation CD in the CD-ROM drive.
- Power on the virtual machine to start installing Solaris 10.
- In most respects, you should follow the installation steps as you would for a physical machine. The following steps outline the special choices you should make for installation in a virtual machine. In particular, note that it is more convenient to delay configuration of the KDM X server until near the end of the installation.
- When you reach the screen titled Boot Solaris, press F4 to go to the Boot Tasks screen.
- At the Boot Tasks screen, use the arrow keys to navigate to View/Edit Property Settings, press Enter to select it, then press F2.
- At the View/Edit Property Settings screen, use the arrow keys to navigate to ata-dma-enabled, press Enter to select it, then press F3 to change the value.
- At the Specify Value prompt, type 1 and press Enter to enable DMA.
- When you return to the View/Edit Property Settings screen, press F2. Then on the Boot Tasks screen, press F3.
- Choose CD if you are installing from the CD-ROM set and continue with the normal installation steps.
- When the kdmconfig - Introduction screen appears, press F4 to skip configuration of the X server for now.
Note: It is important to skip configuration of the X server both at this point and at the point mentioned in the next step. Wait until the third opportunity — after all the software is installed — before configuring the X server.
- After the first reboot and before installing the Solaris software, the installer again displays the kdmconfig - Introduction screen. Again, press F4 to skip configuration of the X server for now.
- After installing all the software and rebooting, the installer again displays the kdmconfig - Introduction screen. This time, press F2 to continue with the configuration steps.
- Press F2 to configure the video device and monitor.
- Press Enter to select 16 color Standard VGA 640x480 (256K), then press F2 to continue.
- Use the arrow keys to move to Multifrequency 100KHz (up to 1600x1200 @ 80Hz), press Enter to select it, then press F2 to continue.
- Keep the default screen size of 17 inches and press F2 to continue.
- Keep the default of No changes needed - Test/Save and Exit. Press F2 to continue.
- Press F4 to bypass the tests.
- Continue with the normal installation steps.
This completes basic installation of the Solaris 10 guest operating system.
Note: There is no VMware Tools package for Solaris guest operating systems
