Can we use CLI to install solaris11/12 in VirtualBox

Post by yep »

Hi,
I am a QE member in Solaris/install team. We are trying to use Virtualbox to install solaris11/12 with mini Solaris iso file. Normally, we can finish all the configurations by using VBoxMange via SSH terminal client. But after the virtual node was booting up, we have to use rdesktop to remote control Vbox for the solaris installation, because there are some interactive steps need with rdesktop tools.

I wonder if there are some other good ways to use terminal clinet to control vitrualbox? Such as something like ldom console management, we can use "telnet ipaddress port" to enter console to control the virtual node?
I notice that Virturalbox support serial port. Can we redirect the virtual serial port to terminal client?
