<title>Installing the Oracle Solaris Guest Additions</title>
|
|
|
|
<body>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> Guest Additions for Oracle Solaris are
|
|
provided on the same ISO CD-ROM as the Additions for Windows
|
|
and Linux. They come with an installation program that guides
|
|
you through the setup process.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Installation involves the following steps:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Mount the <filepath>VBoxGuestAdditions.iso</filepath> file
|
|
as your Oracle Solaris guest's virtual CD-ROM drive,
|
|
exactly the same way as described for a Windows guest in
|
|
<xref href="mountingadditionsiso.dita#mountingadditionsiso"/>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the CD-ROM drive on the guest does not get mounted, as
|
|
seen with some versions of Oracle Solaris 10, run the
|
|
following command as root:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre xml:space="preserve">svcadm restart volfs</pre>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Change to the directory where your CD-ROM drive is mounted
|
|
and run the following command as root:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre xml:space="preserve">pkgadd -G -d ./VBoxSolarisAdditions.pkg</pre>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Choose <b outputclass="bold">1</b> and confirm
|
|
installation of the Guest Additions package. After the
|
|
installation is complete, log out and log in to X server
|
|
on your guest, to activate the X11 Guest Additions.
|
|
