So if your goal is to actually create a USB key capable of installing opensolaris, this will get you there. If you just want to experiment with OpenSolaris, much simpler to just use VirtualBox and play with it in there. If You allready have installed OpenSolaris: Here is the set of instructions to create a live USB stick from the live CD that you have downloaded. Step 1. Install distro-construct. $ pfexec pkg install SUNWdistro-const Step 2. Generate the USB image from CD image. $ pfexec usbgen o.iso o-usb.img /tmp/osol Step 3. Copy the generated USB image on to the USB stick. $ pfexec usbcopy o-usb.img On executing the above command, you will be shown the list of removable media and asked to select the one to use with usbcopy. If you have inserted only one USB media, you will see only one entry to choose from. Please note that you may have to unmount the USB media from your GNOME file manager or command line, before usbcopy starts. Once usbcopy completes, your OpenSolaris live USB sticks are ready to boot a live environment and perform installation. * * Building OpenSolaris USB installer from Windows: http://byte-me.org/?p=16 Have a nice day! -- Üdvözlettel,Backup for recovery, Cemasko Viktor. archiving for discovery. ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
