Johan, thanks for your lines.
Your points 1,3,4,5 and 6 are exactly identical with e.g. Linux, OpenBSD. And no question nor doubt that this counts, [i]ucreate does not blindly copy everything to the target environment.[/i] I get this. But why? Why would one have to dig through a script to make it work? Where is the disadvantage of lucreate making a bootable copy and luupgrade upgrading the latter? [i]My understanding lucreate+luactivate is enough to build a bootable environment, except for the sync-ing of a few files[/i] Yes, and why? When they don't sync, something hits the fan, and the install is lost. You can't test-start in a VM, unfortunately. [i]When rebooting with init 6, certain additional scripts run during shut down. One of these sets the "default" entry in the grub menu.[/i] This is obvious, and I can test-boot manually in Grub from the Grub command line, with Linux and OpenBSD. Because the partition is bootable. Thanks, Uwe This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
