VirtualBox Image of Solaris 10 10/09

The latest version of the Solaris 10 operating system (10/09, also referred to as Update 8) is now available for download as an importable VirtualBox OVF appliance image. We are making this available as a way to quickly download and get started working with Solaris 10 in your VirtualBox 3.x environment on your x86/X64 machine. The image is smaller than downloading the complete DVD Media Kit iso image. This appliance image is just under 1.5Gb. It also starts up and imports much quicker than doing a normal DVD install.
