Random ideas: - Would it help to use NFS instead of UFS ? When I do experiments with the Solaris kernel on SPARC I am using something like a diskless setup that the filesystem sits on a different machine (as a side-effect I can use even large machines for experiments as the test only consists of a "boot another OS from network" which leaves the normal OS installation intact and I can keep the root filesystem under subversion control to track down any changes there) - What about linking the kernel statically (if Solaris still supports something like that) ? ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) [EMAIL PROTECTED] \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 7950090 (;O/ \/ \O;) _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
