Schillix 0.5.1 represents an the release of a OpenSolaris Live-CD distro now based on Sun's Nevada build 35 and Xorg's X11 6.9.0.
Noted: 1. Some things I noticed were the calc progam outputting German error messages although we selected English as our language choice. 2. During boot we noticed 'unknown SCSI' errors, yetit didn't affect the boot process. 3. The DHCP process worked better than in other OpenSolaris distros. No 'hangs' during ethernet detection or initialization. 4. Running 'startx' gave us the Xterm screens and X windows without any issues.
