Good Morning

If anyone is experiencing issue with VirtualBox not running on 
Openindiana, after checking that virtualisation is enabled in the BIOS, 
use the following settings and then reboot


# echo "set  hma_disable = 1" > /etc/system.d/hma

# echo "set disable_smap =1" > /etc/system.d/smap


It would be useful if this could be included in the OpenIndiana docs.

Kind Regards

Russell
