Unless the Solaris install CDs have changed since I least investigated
them: no. They contains a partition table (which usually confuses
Linux quite a bit) and several UFS partitions. So the CD is actuall
very similar to an installed Solaris system, but it is read only of
course.
For Qemu that should be good news: once the installer works, there is
a good chance that the system will boot, too.
