Hi there

I'd like to try out NexentaCP RC2, I have a running qemu installation, 
but thats no good to play around ;-(

The problem is, that I can neither install NexentaCP on my desktop pc, 
nor on my notebook.

My desktop PC has only 256MB of memory and the installer starts just 
fine but then complains about needing >300MB of memory.
#Is there known to be a workaround?

On my notebook, I've got no cdrom (and I don't want to buy an external 
one!). I've got a debian running on it and installed it via a hd-install 
image put on a usb pendrive
So, what I tried now, was to install grub on a 1GB usb pendrive and 
extracted the NexentaCP-RC2 iso image to the pendrive. NexentaCP boots 
just fine from the usb pendrive, the kernel is loaded but then of course 
complains about finding no cdrom (what a surprise ;-) )
# I am an experienced linux user, but a totally newbie in opensolaris, 
are there any fancy boot parameters or configuration files I may edit to 
get this up working, e.g. to use the usb pendrive (or even the built-in 
hard drive) instead of the cdrom as my root directory?
