Alan,

Would it be possible to update the page on http://www.opensolaris.org/os/downloads/ as well ? It still points to the NV_93 announcement and torrent

Thanks !

Seb

The OpenSolaris development package repository

        http://pkg.opensolaris.org/

has been updated to reflect the changes in snv_95 including major fixes
to the Caiman "Slim Install" and the Image Packaging System (IPS).
Users who wish to update their system to the development build can do
so using the "image-update" facility provided by the pkg(1) command.
For important information about "image-update", see the instructions at

        http://opensolaris.org/os/project/indiana/resources/rn3/image-update/

IMPORTANT NOTE: The development builds have undergone limited testing
and users should expect to uncover issues as the next release is
developed.

ISO images are being made available for this build via BitTorrent.
Torrent files are provided as follows

        Primary Languages, gzip compression, 737 MB
        http://dlc.sun.com/torrents/info/osol-0811-95.iso.torrent
        (if burned to media, image should be burned to a DVD)

        All Languages, LZMA compression, 656 MB
        http://dlc.sun.com/torrents/info/osol-0811-95-global.iso.torrent
        (if burned to media, image can be burned to a CD)

Known issues in this repository update
======================================
2824 A few problems with the b95 test image
http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=2824

        During boot of the ISO image, svc.configd(1M) will display the
        message

        svc.config: Fatal error: unable to create "boot" backup of
        /etc/svc/repository.db:

        This message is harmless and can be safely ignored.

6733880 6677411/6677801/PSARC/2008/342 broke VirtualBox by polluting its
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6733880

        When starting up, VirtualBox terminates prematurely with the
        following message

        ERROR: 0 bytes read from child process

        Work-around:

        Set the environment variable LD_NODIRECT to 1 prior to
        executing VirtualBox

                $ LD_NODIRECT=1 VirtualBox
