<title>Installing the Oracle Solaris Guest Additions</title>
<body>
<p>
The <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> Guest Additions for Oracle Solaris are
provided on the same ISO CD-ROM as the Additions for Windows
and Linux. They come with an installation program that guides
you through the setup process.
</p>
<p>
Installation involves the following steps:
</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>
Mount the <filepath>VBoxGuestAdditions.iso</filepath> file
as your Oracle Solaris guest's virtual CD-ROM drive,
exactly the same way as described for a Windows guest in
<xref href="mountingadditionsiso.dita#mountingadditionsiso"/>.
</p>
<p>
If the CD-ROM drive on the guest does not get mounted, as
seen with some versions of Oracle Solaris 10, run the
following command as root:
</p>
<pre xml:space="preserve">svcadm restart volfs</pre>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Change to the directory where your CD-ROM drive is mounted
and run the following command as root:
</p>
<pre xml:space="preserve">pkgadd -G -d ./VBoxSolarisAdditions.pkg</pre>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Choose <b outputclass="bold">1</b> and confirm
installation of the Guest Additions package. After the
installation is complete, log out and log in to X server
on your guest, to activate the X11 Guest Additions.
</p>
</li>
</ol>
