[OpenIndiana-discuss] running Openindiana als VM on Windows server datacenter

I'm guessing this is the same as Windows 2008 Hyper-V, yes?
If so, I'm running a "text mode" install of OI.  Works fine,
as long as you remember to configure the VM with the
"legacy NIC" emulation.  The OI guest has  no guest
para-vartual support, so no mouse, etc.

Don't bother trying the GUI install, for the same reason.
(Hyper-V does not support a mouse in the guest with
anything other than their para-virtual driver.)
