Virtualbox works fine, if you've got a copy of that. Can you try adding a virtual floppy during install? We pulled a very decent version of caiman and it seems a bit finicky.

Looks like OmniOS needs /dev/rdiskette0 and that it doesn’t exist in vmware fusion... from the install log: OSError: [Errno 6] No such device or address: ‘/dev/rdiskette0’ --Peter _______________________________________________ OmniOS-discuss mailing list <a href="OmniOS-discuss@lists.omniti.com">OmniOS-discuss@lists.omniti.com</a> <a href="http://lists.omniti.com/mailman/listinfo/omnios-discuss">http://lists.omniti.com/mailman/listinfo/omnios-discuss</a> </BLOCKQUOTE> </BLOCKQUOTE> </BODY> </HTML>
