Hi, If you are no interested in running a production OS, such as Solaris 10, I would highly recommend Solaris Express (OpenSolaris). Not all of the current fixes in OpenSolaris have been back-ported to Solaris 10. So things like booting off of a ZFS volume do not work in Solaris 10 Update 4. There are other differences that center around the vds and vsw components. I've ran Solaris Express on a T5120 and had great success with testing out guest domains running Solaris 10, Solaris Express, and even Ubuntu Linux. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Octave J.

I have got my t1000 back and have now got a bigger hdd for it, so a re-install is in order. I would like to go with Solaris 10 as the master as its stable but I am unsure of how far it is behind ldom patches. Its been a while since I have been able to do anything with ldom and would like to do crazy thing like put linux on. There were issues with vdisk which have been fixed, but I am not sure if there in Solaris 10 yet. So are there many huge fixes not in Solaris 10 yet? or should it be fine? -- This message was posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ ldoms-discuss mailing list ldoms-discuss at opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/ldoms-discuss ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals?
