For installation we need 2GB RAM. After installation we can use less if needed.

Installation iso could be fetched from http://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/illumos/dilos/isos/dilos-1.3.7/dilos-1.3.7.132-amd64.iso

 

Known issues :
At installation your network card will be detected and configured,
but at boot it will not exists as Xen uses the xnf0 interface, 
you need to do the following, replace rtls0 with your network interface
