Re: [osol-help] opensolaris 64 bit version

2009-08-01 Thread Anon Y Mous
Any version of OpenSolaris that you download IS the 64-bit version. You just download the ISO and burn it to a CD and boot it up on an amd 64-bit CPU and you now have a 64-bit UNIX operating system. OpenSolaris is much smarter than Linux and Microsoft Windows are in that it can automatically t

I've just installed OpenSolaris on my PC, this is the first time that I've tried any other operating system (properly) outside of Windows - and so this whole experience seems foreign, confusing and scary to me. Anyways, I'm slowly stumbling my way through things, and I've hit a few snags that I

Well it looks like you're just about there. If you have valid vtoc on the device then you should be able to use it. Not sure why you can't see it in the gui. Maybe you need to log out and back in again? Or try a devfsadm -v but if you can see it in format that is probably not necessary. -- This
