| 5 | Installing:
|
|---|
| 6 | -----------
|
|---|
| 7 |
|
|---|
| 8 | * Important Note:
|
|---|
| 9 | You must boot OpenSolaris in the same instruction set as the VirtualBox install package.
|
|---|
| 10 | This means if you are installing the 64-bit version of VirtualBox you MUST boot in
|
|---|
| 11 | 64-bit mode. This is because the installer will setup the VirtualBox driver. Use the command
|
|---|
| 12 | "isainfo -k" to check what instruction set is currently being used. If the output is "amd64"
|
|---|
| 13 | you have booted in 64-bit mode, otherwise it is 32-bit.
|
|---|
| 14 |
|
|---|
| 15 | After extracting the contents of the tar.gz file perform the following steps:
|
|---|
| 16 |
|
|---|
| 17 | 1. Login as root using the "su" command.
|
|---|
| 18 |
|
|---|
| 19 | 2. Install the packages (in this order):
|
|---|
| 20 | If you have not installed vbi module (check for the file /platform/i86pc/kernel/misc/vbi) run:
|
|---|
| 21 |
|
|---|
| 22 | pkgadd -G -d VirtualBoxKern-@VBOX_VERSION_STRING@-SunOS-r@VBOX_SVN_REV@.pkg
|
|---|
| 23 |
|
|---|
| 24 | Once the vbi module is installed run:
|
|---|
| 25 |
|
|---|
| 26 | pkgadd -d VirtualBox-@VBOX_VERSION_STRING@-SunOS-@BUILD_TARGET_ARCH@-r@VBOX_SVN_REV@.pkg
|
|---|
| 27 |
|
|---|
| 28 | 3. For each package the installer would ask you to "Select package(s) you wish to process"
|
|---|
| 29 | For this type "1" or "all".
|
|---|
| 30 |
|
|---|
| 31 | 4. Then type "y" when asked about continuing with the installation.
|
|---|
| 32 |
|
|---|
| 33 | Now all the necessary files would be installed on your system. Start VirtualBox by typing
|
|---|
| 34 | VirtualBox from the terminal.
|
|---|
| 35 |
|
|---|
| 36 |
|
|---|
| 37 | Un-Installating:
|
|---|
| 38 | ----------------
|
|---|
| 39 |
|
|---|
| 40 | To remove the VirtualBox from your system perform the following steps:
|
|---|
| 41 |
|
|---|
| 42 | 1. Login as root using the "su" command.
|
|---|
| 43 |
|
|---|
| 44 | 2. Run the command:
|
|---|
| 45 | pkgrm SUNWvbox
|
|---|
| 46 |
|
|---|
| 47 | To remove the VirtualBox kernel interface module run the command:
|
|---|
| 48 | pkgrm SUNWvboxkern
|
|---|
| 49 |
