Opposite: Centos5 installation in DomU at Dom0 Opensolaris

I've posted yesterday an opposite installation tips. See http://vireso.blogspot.com/ I think having OpenSolaris as Dom0 gives you a lot of advantages. You may use zfs zvols as storage devices for your DomUs. This really makes backup, both full and incremental, easy and fast. Just use zfs snapshot, then zfs send commands. It works incredibly fast. -- seriv

Xen 3.1 Solaris DomU (64 bit) at Debian Etch Dom0 (64 bit)

Installation went as smoothly as previous one. This time I dropped from /a/bin/bash to original shell and once again had to force unmount /a.
