Hi.

The windows solaris aborted.

Which update of Solaris 10?
Solaris 10U6 (x64) went fine for me.

How much RAM are you giving the VM?
I usually find that if I don't give mine at least 768 for the install, then it will either just hang, crash, etc.
I give it 1 gig, then after the install I back it down to 640 or so. But I play around with ZFS and ZFS eats up any RAM it can get.
** Edit
I see you are using the Graphical Install. I just use the text based one. I know the Graphical one needs a bunch of RAM though.

I was 512Mo for the installation, (like on VMWare).

Ok..... I try to reinstall Solaris with 1Go RAM.
Thanks for this information.
