Welcome davek, I am also registered and I never got spam like mails because of that.
If you just want to circumvent the reg then go to genunix.org and download Belenix 0.6 (the recent release) and learn with it. Don't worry, Belenix is "true" OpenSolaris, so you will learn SysV with it. But for your ease of use it has many GNU tools on it. Have fun. PS: I really, really don't want to bug you as you are new here but for the sake of "clean" forums/mailing lists: Please, if you have questions or some problems later knowledge wise or usage wise with (Open)Solaris/Belenix then, please go to opsol-help. The help requests in opsol-discuss are not belonging there.
