Not sure if it’s a problem of VirtualBox, but when trying to install Win7x64 SP1 Windows stuck with the following message:
Fatal error C0000034 applying update operation 282 of 117809 (_00000…)
This method helped!

Short tutorial on how to connect, format, mount, detach and reconnect external USB disks.
The used disk is WD20EARS connected to a USB port via Sharkoon Quickport Pro cradle.
Basically, you need only two commands:
The bottom line – Sweex PU202 (eSATA PCI express card) based on Sil3515 chipset is not supported by nv_125.
Both cfgadm and prtdiag see that there is something in the slot:
xeon# prtdiag
ID Status Type Description

2 in use PCI Express PCIE2
“format -e” does not see the disk connected to that card.
Given:
Guess, how long will it take to back up 1.7TB of mostly big files to a directly connected eSATA disk using standard GUI commands?

I thought that nothing could be easier on Solaris than to mount a directory from a QNAP NAS (running Linux). Ha! Nope… Here’s some gotchas.
To enable verbose poweroff messages add the following to /etc/system:
set pcplusmp:psm_verbose=7
Where “7” is the verbosity level.
“Old” Solaris approach: a zone with exclusive IP-stack requires a separate physical network interface.
“New” Solaris 11 (project Crossbow, beginning b105) approach: you have one physical interface and you do with it whatever you want. You can create a whole network within your single box and a single network card.
Here’s an example on how to migrate your existing zones with shared stack to “independent” zones.
Old configuration: one global zone (system name xeon), one non-global zone (dmz), one physical interface (e1000g0), two VLAN’s (1 and 10):
e1000g1000: #VLAN 1 (global zone)
flags=201000843 mtu 9000 index 3
inet 10.0.1.100 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 10.0.1.255
ether 0:18:f3:ef:2a:d0
e1000g1000:1: #VLAN 1 (zone dmz)
flags=201000843 mtu 9000 index 3
inet 10.0.1.101 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 10.0.1.255
ether 0:18:f3:ef:2a:d0
e1000g10000: #VLAN 10 (zone dmz)
flags=201000842 mtu 9000 index 5
inet 10.0.0.100 netmask 0
ether 0:18:f3:ef:2a:d0
xeon# cd /etc/zones
xeon# more dmz.xml
. . .
. . .
“Defrouters” are defined in the global zone. So, if the global zone has a defaultrouter set to 10.0.1.1, you will have this route in zone “dmz”. You can’t get rid of it and force the traffic to 10.0.0.1. Instead you will have two default routes in both zones.
Now, let’s have a look at the virtual interfaces (a part of the new concept).
Currently we do not have any:
Let’s create two virtual interfaces, each of them will belong to a separate VLAN. You can choose a name for a virtual interface and call it whatever (almost ;-) ) you want:
xeon# dladm show-vnic
LINK OVER SPEED MACADDRESS MACADDRTYPE VID
dmz1 e1000g0 1000 2:8:20:fb:6a:82 random 1
dmz0 e1000g0 1000 2:8:20:52:8e:c5 random 10
Now we have two virtual interfaces:
with randomly assigned MAC addresses. You can assign an arbitrary MAC address to a virtual interface or use a factory one. (see man dladm).
Reconfigure the zone:
Now, (re)boot your zone and configure the network interfaces and default routes as if they were on a standalone system.
dmz1: flags=201000843 mtu 9000 index 3
inet 10.0.1.101 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 10.0.1.255
ether 2:8:20:fb:6a:82
dmz# netstat -rn | fgrep defa

Nice! I love Solaris …
To speed things up Bluefish 1.3.3 has static inline functions. However, GCC thinks that the “inlineness” is defined twice:
This is an excerpt from the source:
static inline void paint_margin_line(BluefishTextView *btv,
GdkEventExpose * event,
gint w,gint height) {
To fix remove one of the inline definitions for all functions. For example, change from:
static inline void paint_margin_line(BluefishTextView *btv,
GdkEventExpose * event,
gint w,gint height) {
to
