The Host Key should be displayed in the lower right-hand corner of the VirtualBox machine's window. A pop-up message will also appear when you first start up the virtual machine, explaining that you will need the host key to escape out.

Can you suggest me the solution for all these problemsI'm not sure of the other problems, but you could try downloading the Solaris 10 9/10 VirtualBox appliance, which is a preinstalled image including Guest Additions:

  • Minimize and maximize Solaris 10 installed on VM virtual Box.

    How can I minimize and maximize Solaris 10 installed on VM virtual Box.
    Thanks
    Paulo

    Solaris is working just fine. Everything is ok. now since I open Solaris via VM Virtual box, the Solaris main page fills only half of the monitor. I can minimize/maximize the Virtual Box. But Solaris dimensions are fix and doesn't change. This leaves me a little room to open applications on Solaris. I had the same problems with my Ubuntu, by installing adds-on it was fixed. For Solaris I installed “Guest additions”, didn’t help.
    Thanks

  • Problem installing ubuntu in virtual box

    Hello lately i tried installing ubuntu LTS in virtual box 3.2 using an ISO image downloaded in hard disk but every time i try to run it, it says upgrade it to new ubuntu 10.04 LTS though this is the same one i installed. The softwares which i downloaded earlier are all gone. What might be the reason for this please do let me know.........I was willing to try ubuntu but this is giving me a headache now.
    Thanks for any help afforded
    Regards
    Sanjaya

    Thanks for your reply,
    Yeah i too guessed that the problem might be that it is booting from the iso image in the hard disk so i just moved it to another lokation as i did not know how to unmount the image and now after i have done so the problem of self rebooting is gone atleast for now. Sorry i could not make it much clear was to what the problem was, thanks anyways.

    Hi,
    I have upgraded my VirtualBox Vm to 10049. I did not have any problems, it took a long time though. As others have said, check your video memory (I have 128MB) also your free HDD space, You should need at least 8GB free. I am running VirtualBox v 4.3.24.
    Hope this helps.

    This inquiry was initially posted to the Predictive Self Healing forum for some unfathomable reason.
    It has now been moved to the Oracle VM and Virtualization forum for closer topic alignment.
    Advice to original poster:
    If you couldn't read enough posts to figure out which forum was appropriate, how are you going to be able to read replies to your question? You should go back to wherever you found Virtualbox and Solaris and read the product documenteation. Installation instructions are already there.

  • How to install SUNWi1cs in Solaris 10 under Virtual Box

    Hallo!I am a total newbie in Solaris.
    I have installed Solaris 10 (guest OS)via Virtual Box in XP (host OS).I would like to install Oracle 10g in Solaris 10 but prerequisite s/w like SUNWi1cs and SUNWi15cs aren’t installed.
    I have been trying to install this through commands such as
    pkgadd –d /cdrom/cdrom0/Solaris_10/Product SUNWi1cs SUNWi15cs
    but this directory does not exist.
    How would I access this directory ?Will this mean mounting the CD-ROM with a Solaris 10 DVD-R disc or can I access the Solaris 10 virtual box files in the XP path shown below
    C:\Documents and Settings\JOEY\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\CD Burning\SOLARIS_10\PRODUCT
    The Oracle 10g for Solaris zipped file is in the XP OS.How do I transfer this file (and any other files in XP)into Solaris 10 to be able to install Oracle 10g in Solaris under Virtualbox?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    If u have installed Solaris operating system on some VMWare by iso file then it will treat iso file as CD. So that following steps will resolve ur issue.
    1. Mount that iso file into /mnt file system.
    For example ur iso mounted file system like this:-
    /mnt/cdrom/Solaris_10/Product
    2. Then run this command:-
    pkgadd -d /mnt/Solaris_10/Product SUNWi1cs SUNWi512
    It will ask would to like to add these then type Y
    3. Successful installed package message will displayed.
    It is the right way to add package from source

    Hi,
    if you don't have any idea google is you best friend.
    Ask the question you posted here to google, and you will find a lot of good sites with information on this.
    However, there is also a good guide, to setup a RAC in Virtualbox, which might answer most of your questions:
    http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g/OracleDB11gR2RACInstallationOnOEL5UsingVirtualBox.php
    (Even if you don't intend to install a RAC the steps, till you install the Oracle Software, are the same...).
    BTW: Found this via. google ;)

  • Uninstalling Sun Virtual Box and Windows 7 from Macbook Pro?

    Hi everyone!
    Can anyone tell me how to properly UN-install Sun's Virtual Box and Windows 7 Beta from my Macbook Pro so I can reinstall Windows 7 Beta thru Boot Camp?
    I recently installed Sun's Virtual Box and Windows 7 Beta on my Macbook Pro. It works fine, but there are some things about Virtual Box I am not happy with. I'm told that uninstalling both Windows 7 and Virtual Box and reinstalling Windows 7 through Boot Camp will be better for what I want and Windows 7 will run much better that way.

    goducks14 wrote:
    Thank you - I really appreciate your response. I did delete the .dmg so I guess I will have to re-download it from Sun and then uninstall it as you suggested.
    Maybe you can answer another quick question? I am hearing both YES and NO in regards to being able to install the Windows 7 Beta using Boot Camp. Any problems that you might be aware of?
    If you visit our BootCamp forum you will find many users running Win7http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1244
    While Win7 is not supported, for many users, that's not important.
    When I installed Vista Ultimate 64-bit on this MBP, it was not supported and I installed it under Tiger and a beta of BootCamp! It still works. Experimenting is fun and a great learning experience.
    Just be sure you have a viable backup - SuperDuper!, CCC or TM before installing BootCamp and Win7 and you always have a path for a recovery should anything go wrong.
    Enjoy!

  • [solved] Virtual Box

    I have windows 7 installed in a virtual box. It worked perfectly. Then I upgraded my system to the lastest linux kernel. Now Virtual Box says that vboxdrv is not loaded so I can't boot windows.
    When I did this:
    [meskarune@Lychee ~]$ modprobe vboxdrv
    WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/framebuffer_blacklist.pacsave, it will be ignored in a future release.
    FATAL: Module vboxdrv not found.
    I tried to see if I could update virtual box...but yaourt is not finding it. There is another topic on that here: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=74843
    should I try to update it manually and see if that helps? Is there something I need to do with the new kernel?
    Last edited by Meskarune (2009-06-26 16:11:09)

    heh. ok now I feel dumb. Upgraded the package and saw the note:
    "run vbox_build_module as root every time the kernel is upgraded"
    now it works.

  • Is boot camp required on virtual box?

    i am gonna install xp on virtual box. is boot camp required?
    what i mean is are any driver installations required?

    AceNeerav:

    No however you will need to bring your own copy of Windows.
    what i mean is are any driver installations required?
    The driver installation(s) is done by Virtualbox during installation.
    I have not fully tested this software however you can find some good information [HERE|http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/VirtualBox].

  • How do i install opensolaris without using the virtual box??

    hi.
    i am new to solaris
    i am currently using a windows XP OS
    i got down the opensolaris cd from SUN
    how do i install opensolaris without using a virtual box ?

    The OpenSolaris CD is a "Live CD". You can boot off of the CD, and either run the OpenSolaris operating system directly, or you can select the "Install" icon on the LiveCD desktop. You can find full instructions here: http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/IPS/getst1.html
    Do you want to keep your Windows OS on the disk? If so, then you want to follow the instructions for partitioning your disk (unless you already have a spare partition).

  • Can't run Solaris OVF on Virtual Box 3.2

    I just installed Virtual Box 3.2 on Windows 7 64-bit and I wanted to use the Solaris OVF (downloaded from the site). I imported the ovf file to the VB, using the default setting except the memory (changed from 768 to 1024). After it's done, it just wont start. it boots up then it gives an error:
    syncing file system 1 done (sometimes it's 2 done, or 1 1 done)
    then it dumps the kernel, then reboots. it does this over and over. i can boot it up in single-user mode.
    are they just not compatible or something?

    I'm able to run JSF 2.1 on Tomcat 7 without error, so it's something specific to your environment or application. Looking at the stack trace, I see several instances of "java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError", which suggests the code is being loaded by a VM with a different Java-compliance level than the VM that compiled the code. You might want to look at your VM settings for the project and the runtime configuration for the server. There may be more issues, but first I would rule that out.

    to the Clustering forum, hopefully to more on-topic.

    Please try to pay attention to where you actually place your posts.
    If you pick an appropriate forum, you'll get better responses.
    These are technical forums, not a bunch of chat rooms.
    For example, there are forum members that ONLY post to the clustering forum and those same people NEVER contribute to the Solaris 10 forum.
