[Qemu-devel] [Bug 760956] Re: Open Solaris 2009 Doesn't Boot

[Stefan Weil]

Are you sure that it boots on real hardware? From the information given in
http://dlc.sun.com.edgesuite.net/osol/opensolaris/2009/06/README.osol-repo
I'd expect that this image is not bootable from CD-ROM.

A Debian CD-ROM boots without any problem.
