Install Using virt-install With Options
This example uses virt-install with options to install a Solaris domU from the command line using an ISO image. The command line options specify for virt-install to create an 18-Gbyte root disk image file /xvm/domu-x16.img. The option --nographics is used because this is a Solaris paravirtualized configuration. If you invoke virt-install with command line options but do not supply all required information, the tool prompts you for the needed information.
