I miss that openness from others. The clofi code (original idea from Knoppix) and the hsfs code haven't been (publically!) updated since last summer (and clofi didn't build or work without substantial modification on current ON builds) : http://www.genunix.org/distributions/belenix_site/binfiles/hsfs_iosched.tar.gz http://sarovar.org/project/showfiles.php?group_id=360 And yes, does it run on SPARC (three downloads per day) ? How would you create it for sparc?? More required than Joerg Schilling's "Schillix Base Kit" > -- > Martin Bochnig _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
