Are OpenSolaris 57 and Solaris Express (community edition) build 57 same

If I  will   purchase Solaris Express (community edition) build 59 would I be 
able to install OS on SATA HDD connected to Intel’s South Bridge (ICH8R)  
running in AHCI mode ?



Hi Boris,

The ahci driver was integrated into build 56 and we did the full test
on ICH6 and VT8251, so we claimed that the driver supports those two
kinds of controllers.

However, it's a generic driver, and supposed to support all AHCI-compliant
chipsets. Therefore, probably you will find it will help ICH8R to work
in AHCI mode properly. Moreover, we did get some test information about
ICH8R, and it works though perhaps the test may be not comprehensive.

Thanks,

Thanks in advance
