Hi, New to OpenSolaris. I received Indiana (5.11, snv_75)at Sun Days
(Atlanta). I bought a(n) used PC and tried to install it. Here are my
observations so far.
1. My 17" flat screen is too small for the language choices screen.
2. I have no idea what "Took interface e1000g0 down" means.
3. When I picked on "Install OpenSolaris", I see no disks listed. I looks
on the OpenSolaris web site to see how to solve this, but did not see
anything. This is probably a PC issue, but it would be good to at least
point folks to a solution so the overall user experience is good. So I quit
out of the install.
4. Finally I clicked on system icon on top of the screen and then clicked
on Shutdown. I got this error message: "User does not have permission to
use gnome-sys-suspend command". Also
I finally noticed it said that it would shutdown in 60 seconds,
so I waited and got the above error message again. Next I
brought up a terminal and "su root" and typed shutdown, but
that did not work either. I hate shutting down a system without
permission.
I'm sure that some of these issues have been fixed, but if not,
I have contributed.
Cheers,Al Snow
