Yeah I noticed that... hehe. > Is a reinstall an option for you? Yes, not at all out of the question except for 1 thing... this is a reinstall from having the same exact problem on a previous install. Both in vbox on windowsXP host. Maybe I should renew the ISO I'm using to install. I too have done several installs of Opensolaris from 2008 release up to b 134 all on the same server, and several misc installs in Vbox and vmware land on windows. And at least 2 previously of oi, without seeing this. But now it has come up twice in a row with vbox on a windows 7 64 bit host. > Alternatively, one of the Belenix team members has written a Network > Installer for OI which you may want to try.

Last year i did an install of SXDE and installed it on UFS on x86, somethings worked and somethings didn't i figured it must be an install error i reinstalled and unknowingly chose ZFS after that everything worked out of the box. no idea what caused the multiple errors but a reinstall using zfs seemed to fix the problem. > Alternatively, one of the Belenix team members has written a Network > Installer for OI which you may want to try.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] about devlopment tools
Just correcting this: Example: Apostolos Syropoulos and CodeStrom ported and maintain GCC 4.5.1 for OpenIndiana/Solaris 11. Their ports are well tested and maintained. GCC 4.5.1, NetBeans IDE, Sun Studio 12.2 are available. GCC 4.5.1 was built for OpenIndiana/Solaris 11 and well tested. Oracle also maintains their ports of GCC 3.4.3 and GCC 4.3.2 through the OpenSolaris community. The other major packages are there for all of recent editions of the popular programming languages of today. Most development tools are available through indepenent third-party ISVs or Oracle. Developers have a lot of tools at their disposal to create and port software to the Solaris OS platform... ~ Ken Mays --- On Thu, 12/2/10, Kevin J. Woolley wrote: > From: Kevin J.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Text Installer creates rpool1
On 02/12/2010 2:11 a.m., Roy Sigurd Karlsbakk wrote: I tried the OI Build147 text installer for the first time, and ended up with rpool1 instead of the expected rpool. As mentioned by Jeppe, destroying the old rpool will be a workaround for this. I guess what happens is that OI boots up, sees the rpool name in use and chooses rpool1. The other headache was getting static ip's setup. The "old way" with hostname.intf etc. produced a interface to nowhere. Disable nwam and switch back to the old way: # svcadm disable svc:/network/physical:nwam # svcadm enable svc:/network/physical:default The configure hostname.nicname as before Hi Roy, That is what my post-install script does, and has worked well until now. This is my first storage server build with the OpenIndiana release. The nic was pingable, but the network was not. dladm showed link, and packet tx and rx counts changed, but no joy connecting to the lan. I've never encountered this before after many installs over the last few years. After a reinstall, I used ipadm instead, as it is much easier, and everything was ok. Other than that, it has been stable and performing ok during testing with Intel SSD's for logs and 32x Seagate 2Tb SAS drives. Out of curiosity, what controllers are you using? And what device naming are you getting? The old c0t0d0 or the newer c0tWWNd0? I get the latter on LSI 9211-8i controllers, and there, the device order fails to mirror the chassis order, with supermicro chassis (and even with direct attach). Supermicro AOC-USAS-L8i (LSI 1068) with IT mode firmware 1.30. Old style naming convention, since it is a single port backplane. I think the name is more about the multipath driver being present, which needs to use wwn for dual paths. The only issue on device order is I don't get the first two slots as the first two drives on a cold boot, but do from a soft boot or reset. The first IT mode controller I worked with had persistence enabled after I changed the firmware to IT. This may be different for the SAS2. I'll have the Supermicro equivalent (AOC-USAS2-L8e) to try in about a month. It may be worth asking LSI about the issue.
