Procedure bellow worked for OSOL 134 :-

mount -o loop,ro sol-11-exp-201011-live-x86.iso /mnt
cd /mnt
cp ./platform/i86pc/amd64/boot_archive /home/boris/solaris11

Setup profile as for OSOL 134 :-

name = “SOLARIS11″
vcpus = 2

ramdisk = “/home/boris/solaris11/boot_archive”

vif = ['bridge=eth0']
on_shutdown = “destroy”
on_reboot = “destroy”
on_crash = “destroy”

Doesn’t work for Solaris 11 Express
