Well, I'm running 3.3.1 but I had the same problem with 3.3. Wonder if
it's my Athlon X4 640 CPU?
Any known issues with AMD CPUs?
Solaris 11.1 is working fine on my Intel Nehalem CPUs. Didn't test newer
families as I don't have a host with newer CPUs available right now for
oVirt tests.
On my workstation with old AMD X4 605e CPU I also get a bunch of panic
messages when trying to boot from the Solaris ISO. Tried it with
virt-manager with OS family Solaris under Fedora 19.
It seems that Solaris has issues with KVM and AMD CPUs.
Sadly I don't have enough time to investigate this further :(

Thanks for trying for me.
