You do know that OpenSolaris + VirtualBox can trash your ZFS raid? You can
loose your data. There is a post about write cache and ZFS and VirtualbBox, I
think you need to disable it?

This actually turned out be a lot of fun! The end of it is that I have a hard
disk partition now which can boot in both physical and virtual world (got rid
of the VDIs finally!). The physical world has outstanding performance but has
ugly graphics (1600x1200 vesa driver with weird DPI and fonts.
I have no idea why I posted in zfs discuss...ok, migration...I will post follow
up in help.

Asking these question on the ZFS list isn't going to get you very far.

Looks like the X's vesa driver can only use 1600x1200 resolution and not the
native 1920x1200.
And if I passed -dpi to enforce 96 DPI, it just croaks.
Once -dpi was out, I am inside X with 1600x1200 resolution.
Can anyone tell me how I can get the native 1920x1200 resolution working with
vesa
I am getting a strange reset as soon as I say startx from normal user's console
login.
How do I troubleshoot this? Any ideas? I removed the /etc/X11/xorg.conf before
invoking startx because that would have some PCI bus ids in there which won't
be valid in real hardware.

I think I messed up just a notch!
When I did zfs send|recv, I used the flag -u (because I wanted it to not mount
at that time). But it set the fs property canmount to off for ROOT...YAY!
I booted into livecd, imported the mypool and fixed the mount points and
canmount property. And I am now in
I had created a virtualbox VM to test out opensolaris. I updated to latest dev
build and set my things up. Tested pools and various configs/commands. Learnt
format/partition etc.
And then, I wanted to move this stuff to a solaris partition on the physical
disk. VB provides physical disk access.
