Sun xVM VirtualBox for OpenSolaris ---------------------------------- Installing: ----------- * Important Note: You must boot OpenSolaris in the same instruction set as the VirtualBox install package. This means if you are installing the 64-bit version of VirtualBox you MUST boot in 64-bit mode. This is because the installer will setup the VirtualBox driver. Use the command "isainfo -k" to check what instruction set is currently being used. If the output is "amd64" you have booted in 64-bit mode, otherwise it is 32-bit. After extracting the contents of the tar.gz file perform the following steps: 1. Login as root using the "su" command. 2. Run the command: pkgadd -d VirtualBox-SunOS-amd64-1.5.51-r28040.pkg 3. The installer would then ask you to "Select package(s) you wish to process" For this type "1" or "all". 4. Then type "y" when asked about continuing with the installation. Now all the necessary files would be installed on your system. Start VirtualBox by typing "VirtualBox" from a terminal. Un-Installating: ---------------- To remove VirtualBox from your system perform the following steps: 1. Login as root using the "su" command. 2. Run the command: pkgrm SUNWvbox
