Installing Feisty Fawn on Parallels Desktop for Mac

Installing Feisty Fawn on Parallels Desktop for Mac

After several failed attempts to install Ubuntu Feisty fawn as guest OS on Parallels Desktop on the Mac, I gave up and decided to install Solaris 10 instead.

Whilst installing Solaris 10 as a guest OS, I chanced upon a forum post at Parallels saying that the Solaris guest OS template works for Feisty Fawn.

After Solaris 10 installed, I quickly created another guest OS using the Solaris template and loaded Feisty Fawn via an iso image and guess what? It worked! The image you see is Ubuntu installing on Mac OS X via Parallels Desktop. Cool, huh?

    Thanks. This seems to be working for me. I found your post after my first attempt and so I wasted only about 3 minutes trying it the wrong way.
