For any interested Sun people, I've mirroured it internally at:
/net/donuthole.sfbay/export/isos/nexenta_alpha5
InstallCD and VMWare player images only currently. I'll put the LiveCD
in there as soon as its available.
I'll also update my mashup (SXCR+Studio10+ONsrc+Nexenta) images with the
alpha5 livecd when it's available.
cheers,
steve
