Well, Linux has 2000 people working on this, and OpenIndiana has 2.
You are welcome to join!  Testing, bug reports, and documentation are

Well, tastes differ :-)  The format program is quite old, and not really
needed much any more since everything is done with ZFS.  Also, some of
the functions covered by the gpart program on FreeBSD are done with
fdisk on illumos.

It is just as easy on illumos:  zpool create -o ashift=12 ...

[discuss] Prerelease version of OpenIndiana Hipster 2021.04 for SPARC available for testing

2021-06-17 Thread Volker A. Brandt
Hello all!


A new prerelease version of OpenIndiana Hipster 2021.04 for SPARC is
available for testing.  The ISO image can be downloaded here:

  https://dlc.openindiana.aurora-opencloud.org/SPARC/

The corresponding IPS repository is here:

  https://pkg.openindiana.aurora-opencloud.org/oi-sparc/

There are a few issues during installation, so be sure to read the file

  OpenIndiana_Text_SPARC_06_2021.README

available in the download area above.

Note that this is not an official release of the OpenIndiana project.
With your help, it could become one!

This prerelease is intended to provide a base for further development and
testing.  In particular, the next step will be to make OpenIndiana for
SPARC self-hosting using gcc7.  This is a fair amount of work yet.

The prerelease can be installed on a wide range of SPARC-based servers
and workstations, both on bare metal and in an LDOM.   However, it is
not yet possible to run a full desktop.

We would be happy to hear installation reports!

If you have questions, suggestions, or bug reports, please send an email
to openindiana-disc...@openindiana.org or join the #openindiana IRC
channel on libera.chat.

Many thanks to all who contributed!  The heavy lifting was done by Klaus
Ziegler, with help from Toomas Soome, Andreas Wacknitz, Olaf Bohlen, Gary
Mills, Peter Tribble, Till Wegmüller, and many others.  Thanks to Till
for hosting both the download files and the repository!


Have fun using OpenIndiana for SPARC!

No, the setup shown in Brussels was a Thinkpad running OpenIndiana and

It was quite impressive and attracted people recognizing the Sun Ray to

I disagree.  Igor created DilOS because he wanted Debian-based packages.
Peter created Tribblix because he wanted to work on a minimalist distro
at his own pace.  Jörg created Schillix because he preferred SVR4 pkgs.
Alexander E built v9os because he wanted an OmniOS for SPARC.  And the
list goes on...

This has nothing to do with corporate policies of big organizations.
If someone is willing to give gis time and work, then he gets to decide
what he spends it on.

Re: [discuss] What's wrong with IPS?

2012-12-18 Thread Volker A. Brandt
Hi Philip!


 I've noticed that there seems to be a fair amount of dislike for IPS
 which leaves me puzzled. On paper IPS sounds great and I know that
 some serious thought, engineering and math went into the design of
 IPS.

True.

 I also know that despite the claims of SVR4 packaging fans that
 SVR4 packages have their own limitations--especially when it comes
 to patching systems.

I don't think any SVR4 fans as you put it have ever claimed that SVR4
packages don't have any limitations.

 (Fortunately my own scars from my days of
 packaging software for Solaris faded long ago and only dim memories
 of those days remain. :-)

Well, if you know what you're doing it's actually fun. ;-)

 I'm particularly curious as I know one of the engineers who worked
 on IPS and he's one of the smartest people I've ever met.

There is no question that these people are very smart, and a lot of
effort went into IPS.

 Are the objections to IPS centered on its design or implementation,
 or both?

I would say both.  Also, the attitude towards criticism, at least
in the various mailing lists played an important role.

  You want a scripting hook similar to SVR4 CAS or the postinstall 
  script?  Too dangerous, denied.

  You don't like Python, or think it's too slow?  Python is Gods Own 
  Language (TM), nothing else will do.

  What, you want the object timestamps preserved after package installation?
  We don't need no stinking timestamps...

  A file format for packages?  Just set up a repo.

  Etc. etc.

Also, Sun made one big mistake providing SVR4 tools on IPS-based distros.
They should have focused more on decent pkg migration tools, especially
for the active content, instead of supporting the old format.  Then ISP
adoption would have been much faster.
 
I do admit that things have gotten better (performance is up, we now have
a file format, etc).  I use both SVR4 and IPS, and both have their
shortcomings and advantages.  IMHO there should be Illumos-based distros
with both flavors.

 I'm not sure why it would show up twice, but the first one seems to

 (looks like a recent Intel CPU with AES-NI extensions).

Yes.  It is defined in /usr/include/sys/auxv_386.h -- 0x400

As to why it appears twice, I would guess that ld.so processes the
library search path, finds the libcrypto with the unavailable

search has failed.

 If we were to completely replace the file with the onnv_137 version
 that might be the easiest way to do it. But, IANAL, it might require
 two commits - one removing the file, immediately followed by one
 adding the older one (to avoid hg generating a diff that is a
 copyright notice removal).
 
 If people agree this is valid within the terms of the license I
 don't mind doing a webrev + nightly + RTI. But if that's not
 sufficient then rewriting it from scratch can be left as an exercise
 for someone with more time to burn than I do :-)

IAANAL. :-)

I would argue to keep the Oracle message, for two reasons:

1. It reminds us of the harsh reality, and

2. It might actually give people who know nothing about Illumos the
   safe feeling that a Big Corp(TM) is somehow involved with it.

I don't really care, my Sun Ray screams ORACLE at me whenever I
turn it on... I haven't even bothered to change my .signature yet.

 I'm tracking events where illumos (and not just Joyent) people
 should probably speak. I also get contacted from time to time by
 event organizers looking for speakers.

 So I'd be happy for your input on:
[...]

 Monthly:

- BayLISA monthly
- LOSUG monthly London

We have a more-or-less monthly (every third Tuesday in the month,
unless something intervenes :-) meeting of FRAOSUG, the Frankfurt
Open Solaris User Group.  For details, see:

  http://www.fraosug.de/

We will be happy to welcome anyone presenting about Illumos.  While
the meeting language is German, English presentations are fine.
