I have managed to build snv_78 from sources and everything seems to work well. Certainly no panic at boot with this VIA Esther processor because of a cache optimization issue ( see bugid 6580117[1] ). Previous to snv_74 this board would just panic at boot *after* a build/BFU/ACR cycle. Woo hoo .. it works solid as a rock despite its configuration ( see my blog[2] ).
The next question is how to create a single filesystem on a USB attached device ( like a USB Stick from SanDisk or Kingston etc ) where the filesystem is supported and read/write functional on all of Win32/Win64/Linux and Solaris/UNIX. I don't think that NTFS is worth looking at because it is closed and proprietary. Microsoft could bork that up at a whim without telling anyone. The only two others I see are old world FAT nd FAT32. The FAT type filesystem is too small and restricted for anything real world. That leaves FAT32. Am I missing anything ? Any suggestions ? - Dennis Clarke [1] http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6580117 [2] http://www.blastwave.org/dclarke/blog/?q=node/96 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
