Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Any hardware snafus in this lineup?

I forgot one thing. The Avoton boards have not been tested with Solaris, OpenIndiana or any of its derivates. Lots of people are asking about them for this use, but no results yet that I know of yet. Phil ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list

[OpenIndiana-discuss] linux netlink support or replacement in Solaris/Illumos...???

2014-03-25 Thread Hans J. Albertsson
I tried to compile ohNet from the openhome suite, and stumbled on a single first major problem (there are probably many more less fundamental ones to defeat later). Linux has something called netlink, and the ohNet code uses a few macros and calls to that. I wonder what netlink does, and how

I missed Apostolos' responses to the questions whether he tried to reproduce with a virgin user account and with a local home directory to rule out a corrupted FF config or a FF bug with NFS/CIFS. Not a virgin account but one where I had deleted the .mozilla folder. However, let me

Has anyone been able to ZFS format a 3-4 TB USB drive w/ OI so that it worked properly? I was defeated by a 3 TB Toshiba drive, but am hoping some other make might work w/o generating misaligned messages. I'd very much like to be able to write compressed zfs send streams to ZFS formatted
