We've finally received all the clearances necessary, and the system images for build 95 of OpenSolaris for System z are finally available for download from http://distribution.sinenomine.net/opensolaris.
3 packaging choices are available: VMARC, AWSTAPE and a DVD image. All three are identical code, and can be used with the installation instructions available in the package and on the www page mentioned above. Docs are provided in the VMARC files in plain text, PDF and Bookmaster/READ format. You need a z/VM 5.3 or 5.4 system with VM64466 applied, and you must be running on a z9 BC, EC, or z10 to use these images. They will *NOT* run in an LPAR or on any form of 9672, z800, z890, z900, or z990. Support and education are available - please contact me offlist for more details. It's been two years in the making, but we're pretty proud of it.
