Hey Group;

I rec. a free version of Solaris 10 on DVD. I was in hopes I could dual
boot it and SuSE. Primarily I will use SuSE but would like to try
vmware or the like as a test. I have tried Sid's suggestion
"mount -t usf usftype=sunx86 /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1" (sda1 is correct).
Has anyone gotten this to work? I did get Solaris to boot before
loading SuSE 10.3 GM. That short time showed me why I prefer Linux!!

I would suggest VirtualBox or using YaST to create a Xen domain for Solaris.
Regards
Sid.
