I feel like I missed something. I just finished this :

and I am clearly a rev behind on BeleniX already.
I better burn the latest and then post those screenshots.

Thanks Dennis!!
marTux for x86/x64 is - still - nearly completely unknown/unused.
Not even some of the organizers of OSDEVCON07, nor Jim Grisanzio - who
introduced me to the (also surprised) audience, knew about the existence
of any marTux x86 version (whereas marTux_0.2_for_x86/x64 is much more
mature and tested, than the [two months older] marTux_0.2_for_sparc
thing, that is completely obsolete now - the use of the ancient
0.2_for_sparc is _not_ recommended, please wait for the public release
of marTux_0.3_for_sparc on April30th 23:59:59 CEST [and a new x86/x64
version exactly one month later]).
And all this is mostly my own fault, as I should have put more (that is
a little at all) effort into maintaining a web page, announcements, a
blog, and the wikis.
Plus, some presence in IRC and misc. newsgroups wouldn't have hurt,
potentially.
Plus maybe an automatic download-all.sh script.
So I have to blame myself!
I'm also going to join the livemedia project/community on May1st, in
order to document and upload my personal approach to sparc-SunOS5.x

However,
you could have more underlined, that this is all Blastwave, only the
base is marTux, and even that is mostly OpenSolaris.
I mean okay, it was quite a lot of testing and trouble, to get it to the
current (by no means perfect) level of compatibility and stability.
But my work is just an addition to the work of _many_ others:
Including Joerg Schilling's and Moinak Ghosh's achievents in form of
their advanced technologies and documentation!
All the Blastwave maintainers, all the Solaris engineers, etc. etc
(as I stated in /etc/release).
