Unfortunately it seems not possible to deploy Solaris guests via the Automated Installer by adding the following to the AI manifest :
I was hoping that I could like this deploy automatically the guest additions to the Solaris guests as they are being installed, but unfortunately the above fails during install : see the log file from the installer here:
The best solution could be to provide us with a .p5p archive of the guest additions (see other post) and for the moment as workaround to use pkgadd -d http:// (see results in different post, that works fortunately).
Such as "SVR4" source is not as good as an "IPS" source because the IPS source deals with dependencies and updates but the SVR4 source could possibly be a "temporary" solution.Code: Select all

In fact I think the VBoxSolarisAdditions.pkg makes some assumptions so that it cannot be installed during installation of the operating system, only after the install.Code: Select all
