Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Gnome and the future
well, I did begin this thread but yesterday was a close day for me, just now see the lot of good posted mails. Remember, my english is so catastrofic has Sandy. My 2 cents: I did try to pull out mate about a posible solution for DE. Should be good have a first steep with this new things. The idea of make OI a server only OS make it more boring. For example, at the testing time, some newbs just install the system and use it. A console, a browser and a terminal is enough for testing. Soon, the thing of the DEs must be on tracks again. I'd Suggest Mate, because their are under developing and we could join effort because OI are under developing to. But look like with a good future. For the the WMaker's people I could suggest awesome, it is just awesome like the name but many people just prefer the Old Fashioned full desktop. Mate bring things very VERY recentlys, the kind of things that OI would like and I have not words for explain it in english, but really suggest look to Mate as an option. ...talking about DEs. No long time ago, I did ask in the #openindiana channel about CDE, the old sun desktop. It is a CRAP but I guest is like a a symbol in the olds and goods Sun os time. I would suggest it as and avalaible package, just by traditions and memories. CDE is now free, also could be use as light weight desktop solution. good days or night...

[OpenIndiana-discuss] pkg update requiring new boot-environment in a zone?
I'm trying to update a few zones on my oi_151a4 box and the update requests a new boot environment to be created - for the zone. Predictably, this fails, and specifying --deny-new-be in the zone makes pkg refuse to do the update. So here's the kicker: how does one update the image version inside a zone? I fail to find any relevant documentation on this issue and I'm sort of out of ideas.

You stop the zone, and then from the global zone, you make sure the zone's file system is mounted, ie. by running 'zoneadm -z zonename ready'. Then you update the zone from the global zone, ie. 'pkg -R /path/to/zonename/root update', and finally you start the zone up again with 'zoneadm -z zonename boot'. -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Troubleshooting+image-update+failures then look for the word detach in the document ... that has allowed me to update a zone before now.

Thanks, this worked, albeit now I have a segfaulting problem since the zfs(1M) and zpool(1M) tools have to be closely aligned with the kernel interface (which is not binary-clean, it seems, great...). Oh well, that's another story for another day. Cheers, -- Saso ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
