If you don't care about anything persisting across reboots you can put everything on the ramdisk: See here http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=49309&tstart=0 I tested this approach and documented it here: http://home.arcor.de/bnsmb/public/htdocs/Xen_and_Solaris.html#How_to_create_a_Solaris_DomU_or_Dom0_that_boots_from_a_RAM_disk regards Bernd Kent Watsen wrote: > > I sent this to osol-discuss but didn't get a response - anyone of this > list know? > > Thanks, > Kent > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Subject: > [osol-discuss] CF install best practice > From: > Kent Watsen <kent at watsen.net> > Date: > Mon, 07 Apr 2008 10:42:49 -0400 > To: > opensolaris-discuss at opensolaris.org > > To: > opensolaris-discuss at opensolaris.org > > > Hi, > > I'm planning to install on and boot off of an industrial-strength > compact flash drive.
