I've thought a lot about what people have said in this thread. I personally do not care what format ends up being used as long as i have tools to deal with the old format(s) were. Linux users might not like the idea of SRV4 packages, but a lot of 3rd party vendors for commercial Unix flavors do like them. Not only that, some of them have been doing it for so long that they've ended up building add-ons for Linux that have to be handled as an exception. They also have the virtue of being usable as their own mini-blastwave, I -like- being able to put in Solaris 2.N drivers on OpenSolaris for instance...
What I do care about is install bloat. Whatever gets done it ought to try to lower, rather than grow, ram use during install. Tim Tim This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
