So, I let the install run in the background, and after about 10 mins the xvm bits were installed. After a quick reboot, I was able to log into the BUI from the server's console. I followed the wizard to specify my network info for the server, set the admin's password and name my xvm server. With the network plumbed, I was then able to move to my workstation browser and work with xVM's main BUI console. Checkpoint... I'm installed and ready to work with guest domains.. Now the fun begins!
xVM Server Main Console (browser user interface)
Awesome! Looks great! Hope you can release as Version 1 sometime this year.

Do you know if this supports the PCIe 10GigE cards for the X6000 series blades (mine are specifically X6250)? VMware is taking forever to add support for this (X1028A-Z, http://www.sun.com/servers/blades/optioncards.jsp says it's due "Q2CY08"). We would really like to get our VMs behind 10GigE.
