I'm trying to install Solaris 8 x86 on Qemu 0.6.1. I'm booting with -isa
and going through all the default screens (pressing F2, arrows, space)
When the install system boots, it asks for language selection and asks
for the user to type a number. When I do so, nothing shows up on the
console. When I press enter, I get a repeating series of the letter 'a'.
Configuring the keyboard differently when I boot the cd makes no difference.
Anyone else get this working successfully?

Solaris 9 x86 04/04 (or later) and Solaris 10 x86 guests should work
"out of the box".
You may obtain them for free (download) from
http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/10/
or
http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/9/
respectively.

Thanks, I'm trying 10 now. But I really do want to get 8 working, if
anyone has any advice.
