[OpenIndiana-discuss] Boot errors I need to understand and possibly deal with, please advise!

[Hans J. Albertsson]

Once I got this all in place after changing IDE mode to AHCI mode for 
SATA, I started noticing a couple of boot errors that I need to 
understand, maybe even do something about..

For all: Are they real problems or not?? (My guess is not, really).

1. "pci_lcap_locate: unexpected pci header type:ff"
I found the same error message in a post from Udo Grabowski, but there 
was no explanation for this one in the answer Udo got. What does it mean??

2. "vboxflt:file_t::f_vnode at 16"
Something to do with a non-crossbow driver in Virtualbox... Same here, 
what does it mean???

3. WARNING: kvm: insufficient hardware support (lacking EPT)
Huh??? The CPU is a Xeon 3330. Intel says that has VT and EPT support, 
and I've enabled VT and VT-d support in the BIOS. What gives?? Is Intel 
lying???
