NexentaOS LiveCD will take less than 700MB(extracted) of DVD space.
NexentaOS uses ZFS which is a good thing to show off actual ZFS usage
though
that might mean not being able to boot on low memory systems.
SchilliX is using 750MB which can be reduced by adding in compression
in addition
to the boot time benefits.
If the Blastwave packages are not already compressed, they can be put
in one compressed
image as well.
This should allow all the stuff + documentation to fit in one DVD.

Thanks.

Question: Can we get an estimate of how big that would be? Need to
find out about space on DVD, constraints, etc.
Anyone got a SWAG? And would we have some room to include install
notes from Dennis Clarke...

True. An idea that has been used effectively in the Linux community
is to have a
Multiboot DVD that contains all the 3 OpenSolaris distros. Since all
three are single
CD ones, all of them will fit into less than 2GB space leaving the
remaining for
other stuff.
I already have mental map of the process to create this Multiboot DVD
and can
help with creating this.
I like the idea and agreed that all "Baby" OpenSolaris distros needs
this sort of promotion among Linux users.
