I'd like to install OpenSolaris 2008.05 (or maybe 2008.11 RC2) on an Acer Aspire 3680 with 512 MB of RAM, but booting into Gnome takes up too much RAM - booting to the GUI takes more than fifteen minutes. Can I do a text install? What command do I use to do so?
(Sorry, complete Solaris newbie here.) Also - is it possible to install to a UFS filesystem instead of ZFS? ZFS seems to be the major RAM hog on my machine, and booting from ZFS filesystems seems very slow. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
