Hi,

I'm currently running Mac OS Version 10.5.8, and I'm using VirtualBox 3.1.2, which I've already installed Window XP.

Now, I want to install Solaris, and I downloaded the 'Solaris 10 10/09 Appliance Image for VirtualBox Download' from http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/get.jsp, but the file turns out to be a ZIP file.

Can anyone tell me how to install Solaris? What should I do?
I can't get the virtual box started cuz I don't have a CD nor the file is stored on floopy disk.

Hi,

All Sun OS are zipped,unzip it and get an iso image, mount it like a cd on Virtualbox and boot on
