    I just had to rem_drv first, but I did not even reboot. I'm rather
    impressed at what all I did without ever rebooting the box except
    right after initial install. Also, yeah, I noticed that OmniOS kept
    trying many times to initialize KVM and failed when I installed and
    first booted, which I didn't remember when I tried it out 6 months ago
    (not knowing that AMD was not supported).
