Installing SXDE Build 64a in Parallels - Memory

Zillions of people have posted how to do this. The following are the steps I took to make it work. The setup:

• MacBook, Core 2 Duo 2.16GHz, 1GB Ram
• Parallels 3.0 (Build 4128, June 9, 2007)
• Solaris Express Developer's Edition (SXDE) 5/07 Build 64a (Nevada + Sun Studio 12)

The SXDE installer quits if the memory is less than 768MB. My MacBook came with 1GB. And Parallels allows a max of only 604MB for Solaris 10 VM when I have only 1GB memory. Fortunately, in another experiment, I bought Kingston KVR667R2K2SO/2GR (1GBx2, PC5300 667MHz) which fits the specification of my MacBook. So I swapped them with the two 512MB DIMMs. Then I was able to create a VM of 1GB memory and install SXDE. The Kingston KVR667 did not work with MacBook very well and caused a panic after my installation. I swapped them out and put the old 512MBx2 in, and reset the memory of the VM to 604MB.
