That is quite a luxury situation. Could you please point the person who is in charge for High Sierra FS to my bug report about missing recognition of RRIP-1.12 ? http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=7199 It is two weeks old and got no reply yet. I found the user community of Solaris very friendly but with the technical openness there could be some improvements. As we are at it and you are my inofficial Solaris distributor: Why is Schillix-0.6.7 as Live CD not ready for preforming ./configure && make although all tools are in the ISO image ? After booting one needs only to set 5 symbolic links to make it a rough but sufficient system for software building: m=/media/SchilliX-0.6.7 s1=$m/opt/gcc-3.4.3/bin # Get the tools for "./configure ; make" ln -s $s1/gcc /usr/bin/cc ln -s $s1/gas /usr/bin/as ln -s $s1/cpp /usr/lib/cpp ln -s $s2/gmake /usr/bin/make # Get system include headers rmdir /usr/include ln -s $m/usr/include /usr/include # Make room on the ramdisk rm -r /usr/perl5 I took the freedom to add a session with a small script and the xorriso tarball to the image. (The boot record could be copied unaltered and still worked for the two-session image. Currently i would not know how to produce it matching to the boot image.) Is there a way to make the RAM disk larger ? (The 70+ MB of perl5 give enough room but i deem the method unelegant if there are still 600 MB RAM free.) > I would call it NIH Syndrom :-( I often hit the Not Invented Here receptor of people with my ideas. Rather than quarreling i prefer to implement them and let them compete with what was already invented decades ago. Sometimes it does not look too bad.
