Re: [osol-discuss] Announcing NexentaCP(b65) with ZFS/Boot integrated installer
2007/6/7, Erast Benson [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Announcing new direction of Open Source NexentaOS development: NexentaCP (Nexenta Core Platform). NexentaCP is Dapper/LTS-based core Operating System Platform distributed as a single-CD ISO, integrates Installer/ON/NWS/Debian and provides basis for Network-type installations via main or third-party APTs (NEW). First unstable b65-based ISO with ZFS/Boot-capable installer available as usual at: http://www.gnusolaris.org/unstable-iso/ncp_beta1-test1-b65_i386.iso Great work! Please give it a try and start building your own APT repositories and communities today! Note: this version of installer supports ZFS/Boot type of installations on single disk or 2+ mirror configuration. For now, only Auto partitioning mode could be used for ZFS root partition creation. More details on NexentaCP will be available soon... -- Erast ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org -- Un saludo, Alberto Ruiz ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
Re: [osol-discuss] Do we even need a reference OpenSolaris binary distro
2007/6/5, James Carlson [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Robert Lunnon writes: The Reference Platform would then be defined as one that emulates this as closely as possible without adding extra features that could inadvertently differentiate the reference plaqtform from a given distro. That's possibly doable, but I think it also runs directly into one of the (apparent) goals of Indiana: having a reference distribution that we *want* people to see on the top-level site and download as the preferred introduction to Solaris. A stripped-down version would fail miserably at attracting new users, as it'd appear (by definition) to be even less functional than what we have today. Don't think so, there are a lot of people that like to learn how the OS works by learning how to fit all the pieces from scratch, a stripped-down version would help to attract that profile. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org -- Un saludo, Alberto Ruiz ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Re: [osol-discuss] Do we even need a reference OpenSolaris binary distro
2007/6/1, Alan Burlison [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Ian Murdock wrote: People are getting too hung up over the reference aspect--and note that that word wasn't even mentioned in the original proposal. If anything, it has come up in the context of assuring people that multiple distros *can* continue to exist even with OpenSolaris expanding to incorporate a distro, and that we can avoid Linux-style fragmentation in the face of multiple distros by thinking of the new thing as a reference. That is all. *Building a reference isn't the main goal*. What is the main goal? Making OpenSolaris more accessible to people like this: [snip] How is Indiana going to fix his issue? Note he's not complaining about the lack of GNU tools (for example), he's complaining about not being able to find a download. This is *despite* the great big button on the home page that would allow him to order a starter kit, or the paragraph on the download page (1 click away) which says: -- Solaris Express, Community Edition is Sun's binary release for OpenSolaris developers (code named Nevada). It is built from the latest OpenSolaris source and additional technology that has not been published in the OpenSolaris source base. This release is unsupported. Developers can build the OpenSolaris source by using this release as the base system. It is updated every other Friday. -- Plus similar info for all the other distros. Which seems pretty damn clear to me. I talked to two people from the Indiana team a couple of weeks ago for over an hour, and at the end of it I *still* had no clear idea of what problem Indiana was supposed to solve or how, and I *still* don't. You've said that Indiana is going to fix this guy's problem - How? It seems to me that his problem is more to do with the mechanics of getting an install, not the contents of the install. I think that the idea is clear, fixing the usability problems of OpenSolaris by creating a new binary distro within the opensolaris.org community, as a community effort. I think as a first goal Indiana should identify a comprehensive list of usability problems for newcomers, and then figure out solutions for that. It's pretty obvious to me, that all that problems should be implemented on a distribution, and some of those implementations might not fix on the existing ones (which doesn't mean that we cannot take advantage of the work that is already done). At the same time, I have the feeling that for production purposes, none is recommending anything but Solaris Express, and Solaris Express is not a distribution aimed to be easy to use however it has its own goals, which makes the idea of a new distribution, not necessarily a reference one, a good idea to me. You keep claiming that Indiana is going to solve all our problems without explaining exactly what you think those problems are, and how you are going to fix them. We were all under the assumption (mistaken, it now seems) that Indiana was a reference distro, if it isn't, please tell us what it is. Glynn's project proposal mail says nothing more than telling us that Indiana is a distro (well, duh) with the aim of increasing the userbase and growing mindshare in the volume market by providing easy access to the technology created within the OpenSolaris community which is so general as to be meaningless - *any* distro helps do those things. As I've already said I fully support your right to run 'Project Indiana', whatever it actually is - even though I personally have no interest in it. But *please* stop telling us that you are going to fix every random gripe that someone makes. If you give us a specific, measurable and realistic list of goals we can have some sort of meaningful discussion about your project and whether we as individuals want to be involved. Until that happens, all you are doing is confusing people, and that's not going to incline them to want to help you. -- Alan Burlison -- ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org -- Un saludo, Alberto Ruiz ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

If you think the Register guy is the only one to have complaints, you're wrong. The first time I went to opensolaris.org, I wondered where the F*** is OpenSolaris? I know I'm not the only one. It would be interesting to tracks visitors activity, don't we have something like google analytics? That helped me to figure out what should be fixed in other project sites in term of usability ( pygtk.org). However, I had this problem. And everyone that comes to the site with basic knowledge of what opensolaris is (open source solaris), falls into that problem. And most of them get annoyed about the sun.com registration to download Solaris Express. So, Solaris Express is not helping our community to make newcomers feel welcome. Newcomers are the main source of user base, and user base is the main source of new contributors and developers, and without more developers, there is no way to success. Perhaps the answer to all of this is just to make an OpenSolaris distro happen - and if it works great, if not move on and learn from it. Do folks have the patience for that type of experimenting? Good point. I don't understand why there are so many people against something new that can be potentially good for the community, if they think is not needed, they shouldn't contribute, and that's all. I would like to see more constructive approaches to this issue. We have anything to loose, and lot to gain. -JM ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org -- Un saludo, Alberto Ruiz ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Hi, I just subscribed to the list and I will like to introduce the work i am doing by announcing the release and future integration of a native OpenOffice.org 2.0 in NexentaOS. The build of OpenOffice.org in NexentaOS has been challenging as there are a few but tricky differences in the working environment in comparison with OpenOffice.org in Solaris 10. For those interested in the internals of it, I have blogged it in: http://www.it46.se/show_entry.php?id=248 There are still some Issues open and a few patches to complete, specially moving the locale support from Xorg to OS... Downloads for NexentaOS (alpha4) are also available from the link. OOo regards, Alberto Escudero (aep) ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
