Thanks for your report. Can you try with the latest version in Ubuntu 10.10 and tell us if it's still not working ? Thanks in advance.

Now, after passing OpenSolaris' grub menu the (OSAL) kernel panics; kvm spins. I can boot (this same machine) into Ubuntu 9.10, which has not had the latest security updates, and with that the OpenSolaris VM works as expected. This Ubuntu 10.04 has had all package updates (including recent kernel security issue). Sorry, but I have not tried to start the OpenSolaris VM for some time, so I cannot associate the problem with a particular update. It *did* work with the fresh 10.04 install (after changing -soundhw to work around cpu hogging).
