Hi, Barbara I have few feedbacks on the Getting Started doc.
Barbara.Lundquist at Sun.COM ??: > Install gang, > > Please review the 1st batch of installation documentation for > the 2008.11 release ASAP this week. > > 1) Getting Started With OpenSolaris 2008.11 at > http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/caiman/files/getstart.pdf > Some comments for above docs: Page 5: Installation Options Option 4 can not apply to LiveCD. (Dave also pointed out). Page 14: Table 1-2 Linux, or Windows and Linux Note... "the Solaris partition must precede the Linux swap partition." I think this request is not practical, unless delete Linux swap partition, seems can't create a partition precede it. Maybe we need some other workaround. Page 14: Partitioning a Multiboot System "Prior to installing, you need to create a partition for installing the OpenSolaris software." Slim GUI installer can also create Solaris partition, so create partition before install is not mandatory. P16: Howto Install OpenSolaris 2008.11 "The installation uses a previously created Solaris fdisk partition..." Maybe the better is: The installation uses an existing partition or new created Solaris fdisk partition Page 36: Blank page > Changes in Getting Started With OpenSolaris 2008.11: > - Please check blog links to see if any are outdated. > - I added a New Features section with Auto Install and Distro > Constructor descriptions. > - I moved the Upgrade section into this book. > - The IPS sections are moved to a separate book that will be reviewed > next week. > - The Snap Upgrade section was moved to a separate book per below. > - Rearranged some sections and rewrote for clarity. > - Basic installation procedures are largely unchanged. > - Some of the doc cross-references still point to 2008.05 docs. > > 2) Managing Multiple Boot Environments in OpenSolaris 2008.11 at > http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/caiman/files/snapupgrade.pdf > > Changes in Managing Multiple Boot Environments in OpenSolaris 2008.11: > - This is the former Snap Upgrade chapter with new section > added for zones support. > - Upgrade section was moved out of here and into the > Getting Started Guide. > - Minimal changes except for new zones support section. > > > Review docs for Auto Installer and Distro Constructor > will be routed for review later this week. > > Barbara > > > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > caiman-discuss mailing list > caiman-discuss at opensolaris.org > http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/caiman-discuss > -- Great Thanks & Best Regards --- Jeffrey Huang SWAN: x51683, Ext: 0086-10-62673683 Solaris QE Group Email: jeffrey.huang at sun.com China Engineering & Research Institute, Sun Microsystems 7/F Chuang Xin Plaza, Tsinghua Science Park, Beijing China -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
