That is, it doesn't hang any more? Btw. some older systems are extremely slow booting Solaris from USB, because Solaris' boot_archive file is so big, and the old systems use slow USB 1.x mode to load it. Similar to this bug report: http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=4180 > - System works, but is quite unresponsive (amd64 build) That probably depends on the write speed of the usb flash memory device. A lot of them write quite slow (1 - 2 mbytes/sec). Enabling zfs compression and disabling access time updates might help a bit (compression=on and zfs atime=off). -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
