Hello All,
Booted the four illumos distributions (iso): SmartOS, OmniOSce, Tribblix,
and OpenIndiana by following this SmartOS wiki
<https://wiki.smartos.org/display/DOC/Booting+SmartOS+from+GRUB2>. All
booted properly but OpenIndiana! I know this isn't the recommended way to
boot but this seems very convenient, i.e., download the iso image, then
boot either by burning it to CD/DVD or by using GRUB2 like most Linux
distributions do! Please have a look at the boot message and the grub.cfg
file below.
*OpenIndiana boot message: *
