1. Do a full power down (unplug power totally, wait about a minute, replug power) 2. Go into BIOS - see if your HD(s) are recognized there. 3. Check out your BIOS, make sure things look. Fix issues. Save/Reboot from there. If your drives are good, you are OK. Check dirt/cables/connections.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Future of OI (was Bash Bug issue)

You missed Tribblix and DilOS and a few others. Same as in cars, why are there so many of them that do similar things ??? Choices. Tribblix, XStreamOS-Desktop, and OI are the current leading 'desktop-oriented' distros. Those distros differ in package management and default desktops (amongest

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] New OI /dev release, release structure

And we need SOME release structure for /dev , made of people willing to do that, *starting with people who last time produced /dev and under their guidance* (and using latest updates in Hipster, that could be used, without breaking dependencies and production process and intoducing new bugs)

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] New OI /dev release, release structure

Hipster provided the recent kernel builds and updates from the upstream consolidations. We had discussed hipster as being oi-151a10. /dev is just a timestamp on a snapshot. A Hipster snapshot can replace /dev once the major consolidations are successfully built and tested. Hipster is like

The power supply can handle the smaller drives very easily as they are not high-load devices. On Thursday, July 24, 2014 1:51 PM, Harry Putnam rea...@newsguy.com wrote: Harry Putnam rea...@newsguy.com writes: [...] Lots of good input here. Can anyone tell me if it is better to have a

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] libgnomeprintui-2.2

Oddly, I pulled up my GIMP 2.8.10 build and see libgnomeprintui folded under the library/gnome/print/gnome-print package. No worries... ~ Ken On Tuesday, July 22, 2014 2:47 PM, Milan Jurik milan.ju...@xylab.cz wrote: Hi, well, that is really question for Oracle, but yes, S11 removed

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] booting HP xw8600 from ISO

You usually keep it in AHCI or SATA mode - not IDE. Depends on how the various providers define the modes. Consider IDE controller modes 'classic legacy'. On Tuesday, July 22, 2014 10:40 AM, Harry Putnam rea...@newsguy.com wrote: Mark mark0...@gmail.com writes: On 21/07/2014 7:11 p.m.,

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] [solarisx86] Firefox

Best for users to use with Firefox 29.0.1 or 24.6.0ESR. It'll take awhile for many of the supporting distros to migrate to the GCC 4.9.x compiler series which lowers  the overhead of building modern code like OpenMP 4.0 and C++1y. ~ Ken Mays On Thursday, July 3, 2014 9:03 AM, Alan

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] [OmniOS-discuss] Shopping for an all-in-one server

I like what Ian said. although, 4U is a bit daunting. You can opt for 1U-2U, 1-2 processors. You can have a chassis with 8 drive bays. Fit for = 18TB of storage. From there you can get solid state HDs and regular drives of your choice. Simple controller that can handle them - and has a driver

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Tribblix update

Other notes on Tribblix vs OI: 1. Tribblix is also a 'install-only' DVD and USB option at the moment versus the 'Live-DVD' option of OI. Also, it has support for automated installs in an easier fashion than OI. 2. OI is a 'server-centric' distro. Many packages community and/or sponsor
