BUT, to my surprise the x86 version is FREE - WOW !</p> <p>So here are some screen-shots of me installing Solaris 10 in <a href="http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/8">Qemu</a></p> <style type='text/css'> #gallery-1 { margin: auto; } #gallery-1 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 33%; } #gallery-1 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-1 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */ </style> <div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-52 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'> <dt class='gallery-icon '> <a href='https://www.linickx.com/52/solaris-10-qemu-style/sol10_login'><img src="https://www.linickx.com/files/2008/10/sol10_login-150x150.png" class="attachment-thumbnail" alt="Solaris 10 Login Screen" /></a> </dt></dl><dl class='gallery-item'> <dt class='gallery-icon '> <a href='https://www.linickx.com/52/solaris-10-qemu-style/installin_sol1'><img src="https://www.linickx.com/files/2008/10/installin_sol1-150x150.png" class="attachment-thumbnail" alt="Installing Solaris 10 in QEMU" /></a> </dt></dl><dl class='gallery-item'> <dt class='gallery-icon '> <a href='https://www.linickx.com/52/solaris-10-qemu-style/solaris10_1st_screenshot'><img src="https://www.linickx.com/files/2008/10/solaris10_1st_screenshot-150x150.png" class="attachment-thumbnail" alt="Solaris 10 first screenshot" /></a> </dt></dl><br style="clear: both" /> </div> <p>My first impressions were surprise that it worked ! :cool: , in general the sol10 in qemu is slow &amp; I haven't yet worked out how to change the screen resolution, but sun's move to release the x86 version for free is a welcome one, and I can't wait to find a proper machine to test it on !</p>nickThu, 30 Jun 2005 10:13:00 +0100tag:www.linickx.com,2005-06-30:solaris-10-qemu-styleBlogLinuxqemuSolaris
