Re: [osol-discuss] How to install OpenSolaris in USB harddisk?
I would like to install OpenSolaris in a USB hard disk. I like this way of installation so that I can run OpenSolaris on different computers just by bringing my USB hard disk around. I tried booting up from the Live CD and during the installation, choose the attached USB hard disk. It went through the whole process completely. When I pressed the reboot button it did not reboot from the USB hard disk even though I had set it up in my CMOS boot option setup. The computer tries to boot up but gives a message that this does not have a boot sector. There was a bug b/t builds 93 and 104 which forbids you from booting from a USB memory stick. However, I have never had problem booting from a USB hard disk. Actually I have not installed OpenSolaris into any of my primary laptops yet (always boot from one of the several USB hard disks that are shared among those laptops). I have a habit of plugging the USB hard disk into the same USB slot. Someone was mentioning that it may not boot if you use a different slot. You may want to make sure that this is not the possible cause of the problem. Before you dig any further, I suggest you probably should try to do the installation again. I am sure you have verified the USB hard disk before hitting the enter key for installation. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

[osol-discuss] ext4 bug zfs handling of the very same situation
Hi, there was recently a bug reported against EXT4 that gets triggered by KDE: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/317781 Now I'd like to verify that my understanding of ZFS behavior and implementations is correct, and ZFS is unaffected from this kind of issue. Maybe somebody would like to comment on this. The underlying problem with ext4 is that some kde executables do something like this: 1a) open and read data from file x, close file x 1b) open and truncate file x 1c) write data to file x 1d) close file x or 2a) open and read data from file x, close file x 2b) open and truncate file x.new 2c) write data to file x.new 2d) close file x.new 2e) rename file x.new to file x Concerning case 1) I think ZFS may lose data if power is lost right after 1b) and open(xxx,O_WRONLY|O_TRUNC|O_CREAT) is issued in a transaction group separately from the one containing 1c/1d. Concerning case 2) I cannot see ZFS losing any data, because of copy-on-write and transaction grouping. Theodore Ts'o (ext4 developer) commented that both cases are flawed and cannot be supported correctly, because of a lacking fsync() before close. Is this correct? His comment is over here: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/317781/comments/54 Any thoughts or comments?

Yes, I would assume that is possible but the change for it happening is small. Other filesystems prefer to write the meta data prompt, but ZFS will easily wait until the file is completely written. And UFS has the extra problem that it can change the file size and reading will show garbage in the file. (It changes the inode, possibly because it's in the log, but it hasn't written the data). We've seen that problem with UFS and the /etc/*_* driver files. Precisely because we didn't flush/fsync. (And in some cases we used fsync(fileno(file)), but the new content was still in the stdio buffer) Only versioned filesystems can make the first sequence work. Concerning case 2) I cannot see ZFS losing any data, because of copy-on-write and transaction grouping.

I think it is important enough for me to say on the ML that this is a
great book for anyone who is new to Opensolaris. Whether you know Unix
systems or not, this will be a very useful book for you to have if you
are getting to learn Opensolaris. It has both breadth and depth,
extensive topic cross-referencing, and very little technical error.
It doesn't cover every conceivable topic. It is a great primary
resource, backed by the official Sun docs and the #opensolaris
Freenode channel. With these three sources of info, along with the
INTERNET, you can pick up on Opensolaris quickly.
To go through everything I like about this book would be exhausting.
Protip: At least go to Amazon and look up the table of contents, and
see what it covers. Also, I think opensolaris.{org|com} has a link to
samples from several chapters. Check it out.
Now to see if Apress' book coming in April can even TOUCH this...
Apress is a hit-or-miss; I have pretty high respect for Wiley right
now.

Re: [osol-discuss] Life With Solaris
I think with the CSW or blastwave packages you need to install their version of gnome, and login in using it instead of the JDS version of gnome, and programs you install should show up in that gnome menu. I for one though don't really like the blastwave version of gnome and prefer the JDS version much better. So, what I do is copy the .desktop file from /opt/csw/share/applications to /usr/share/applications log out and log back in and the icon appears in the gnome menu. Sometimes you might have to edit the .desktop file Category section to make it appear in the right place, but more often than not they work just fine as is. I did not know about lifewithsolaris.jp.

Re: [osol-discuss] Opensolaris Bible: Buy it!
Harry, thanks for taking the time to provide your feedback. A couple of comments in-line below. Harry Putnam wrote: Emmanuel De Paepe emmanuel_depa...@yahoo.com writes: Idem over here. I paid it only 28.5 Euro, which is an excellent price if you see the '50 US dollar' on the back of the cover. The only issue is the quality of the book. I was surprised that Wiley uses such low quality phone book paper. This is a big contrast compared to all my other Wiley (semiconductor) technical books. I too see poor quality in paper... and apparently the printing too. It appears the printer was low on ink. Nothing is really crisp. As authors, we had no control over the printing process or paper quality; it seems to be similar to the other titles in the Bible series that I have samples of, so I'd say it's consistent, anyway. We can bring it up with Wiley for future printings, I guess, though I'm doubtful it would make any difference. In their defense, we did deliver a bit more material than was originally specified, but they bent over backwards to put it all in. Regarding the contents, I certainly can recommend this book. It's easy to read and I was surprised to see the number of commands I have never heard of. Commands which are otherwise well hidden in the man pages. I am beginning to disagree about contents too. I'm way low on the skill level in unix or Solaris but have run unix or unix like OS for over 10 yrs, mostly linux but with several months experience with 2 of the BSDs (open and free) and at least 2 mnths with early offerings from solaris... somwhere around 200[03]. As I recall you paid something like $40 for a DVD with a x86 Solaris OS, the OS was free but the processing cost (It may have been less, but $40 sticks in my mind). I see what could be described as a `thin' coverage of many things. [remainder ellided] We appreciate the feedback on topics you think deserve deeper coverage. The scope of the book is very broad, and that breadth definitely compromises depth. I would think that in every subject area we could have gone much deeper; the resources section provided with each chapter is really designed to direct you to materials, such as the Sun product documentation, that offer greater depth. Ultimately, I expect the book to be more satisfying to those who are new(er) to OpenSolaris, not users or administrators with long Solaris experience, though I think it can serve as a handy reference to the latter for parts of the system that they are less frequently in contact with. Specifically in the case of partitioning, I think we chose not to emphasize this as strongly, as ZFS makes it a far less interesting topic in general; you really want to just be giving it whole disks and making your life simpler. Perhaps that's being a little too optimistic about ZFS for some :-) We'll archive your feedback, as well as any others offered, for consideration should there be a second edition. Feel free to drop any of us a note, or post here, with further thoughts on what would make a better book for you. Dave ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

[osol-discuss] unable to install using installadm - error 20 multiboot kernel must be load
I'm attempting to perform a network install of OpenSolaris to a SunFire x4500 (thumper) which does not have a local dvd. I setup an install server on another X86 system, created manifests etc.. When I boot the X4500, I get the grub menu, which is nice and I think a good sign. However pressing the enter key starts to load the kernel but aborts with the message: error 20 mutliboot kernel must be loaded before modules I've done some googling, but not finding anything useful in this area. If I try to load this from the command line, something seems to load (a few dots appear on the screen) and there's no errors reported when the kernel$ line executes. But when running the module line, I still get the error 20. Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot this would be appreciated.

[osol-discuss] Full Root? - I think Not
Hi all. I come from the Real Solaris world, been working with Solaris 10 for about 3 years now, and decided to give OpenSoalaris a place on my home server vice Soalris 10 x86. I think I'm missing something here, on Solaris 10 when I create a 'full' root zone, it copies over 100,000's of files, and take up about 4GB. I try that in Opensolaris and it copies over 72 MB WTF? So, I did the sysid cfg and logged in and started to compile some stuff, only to note that there is ton's of stuff missing. X11 libraries, etc... Is this the default behaviour of Opensolaris, a 'full' root really means. 1/10 of the OS installed?

Re: [osol-discuss] Opensolaris Bible: Buy it!
Brian Cameron brian.came...@sun.com writes: Dave: Specifically in the case of partitioning, I think we chose not to emphasize this as strongly, as ZFS makes it a far less interesting topic in general; you really want to just be giving it whole disks and making your life simpler. Perhaps that's being a little too optimistic about ZFS for some :-) For those OpenSolaris desktop users out there, figuring out how to set up OpenSolaris in multi-partition environments where you may have Linux, OpenSolaris, Windows, etc. on the same machine is complicated. I'd bet that most people who install OpenSolaris as a desktop platform wouldn't want to dedicate their laptop's entire disk to a single OS. Adding to that... but first Thanks to D. Minor for his comments. Another class of people who Brians comments might apply to are those who don't mind trying out Osol on a whole disk, but in doing so will miss out on many of nifty things about zfs since raidz does not accept just one disk. Thats exactly how I ended up disappoointed in the coverage of format, fdisk and partition. I wanted to partition and slice up my disk to be able to work with raidz. Maybe that isn't really important and all the same stuff applies to any zpool. I don't know yet... I'm just getting started. I had some trouble getting advice about making raidz on partitions, probably because it isn't the best usage of raidz or even of zfs. I bought the OS Bible to get that information. I didn't realize there was a `Bible' series David alludes to and took it to mean it would be chock full of solaris details, not citations to web pages. That David points out are included.

Perhaps that's being a little too optimistic about ZFS for some :-) I suspected this was the case but only after buying the book and realizing it didn't cover the older necessities. But I would point out that its called the Bible of OpenSolaris .. not the Bible of ZFS. Not meaning to be too clever here, and thanks for taking my post seriously. I am quite a rank amatuer after all. ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

[osol-discuss] How can I get rid of aggravating `Key ring'
Can anyone tell me how to get rid of the aggravating `Key Ring' dialog the jumps up on the opensolaris desktop every time I try to log into a remote machine via ssh. I want to do it the simple way and enter my paswwd at the command line. Don't want to be bothered in anyway by helpful (unhelpful and aggravating) dialog that someone else thought was nifty. Under System/preferences... I don't see anything about key-ring, passwd or security... where can I turn it off at? ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
[osol-discuss] Regarding Pstack
Hi all, Can you please tell me some good doc links about understanding the output of Pstack. Like when I do a pstack on my process it shows like: 0009a890 main (1c, ffbff45c, ffbff4d0, 24d000, fd0a0380, fd0a03c0) + 2018 00098448 _start (0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0) + 108 So I want to know what exactly is +2018 or +108 . I want to know about the contents of the stack of a process. Please help!

Re: [osol-discuss] How can I get rid of aggravating `Key ring'
you can go to System-Preferences-Sessions and uncheck GNOME Keyring Daemon Wrapper in the Startup Programs tab to turn off gnome-keyring, if you do not like it.
