It seems that to install Solaris 10 (5/08 32bit) on VMWare Server (1.0.5 32bit), XP (SP2 32bit), you probably need >512MB RAM.
My first attempt to install with 512 (the "recommended" amount of memory according to Sun) it failed and halted during "determining size requirements".
Rebooted, adjusted to 756MB RAM, passed that stage with no problems. The rest of the installation was fine.
Problem #2: After rebooting, logging in, adjusting resolution (which doesn't stick after a reboot by the way). Mount the VM drivers, run the install script, use default answers for all the prompts. Reboot. Several unattended reboots later it finally comes back up and is extremely sluggish.
Oh well, using without drivers for now, seems fine interactively.
