Or somewhere else? Purchase from the online store. HW is really very nice and consumes only a few wats. It can be used without active cooler (with only default passive cooling) even on very intensive CPU/IO workloads. It has RTC and backup battery interfaces. I'm using it at the moment as zabbix server to monitor all other HW at home network and few sensors available over wifi (my custom esp 8266 based applications). kloczek -- Tomasz Kłoczko | LinkedIn: http://lnkd.in/FXPWxH ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss

If you get OI going on this piece of HW, it will be due to members of this list and you. All I'm really asking, assuming you are able to get OI running on your HW, is, did you purchase it from their online store? Or somewhere else?

Will try to ask but I think that they may have to small customers base to provide such support (will try to ask them). Because boot freezes or restarts at very early stage I suppose that problem may be with CPU support So question to OI developers: how it is with this Intel Pentium CPU N4200 support? and/or what more I can do to diagnose boot issue? Another thing is that this HW has 128GB eMMc so I'm not sure is it will be possible to use OI with this eMMc as root dev. I have 1TB miniPCI Samsung Evo 960 SATA plugged in this HW (miniPCI slot is configurable at BIOS level to support SATA or NVMe over this interface) and another spindle connected over SATA connector so at least those devices should be possible to use with OI. kloczek -- Tomasz Kłoczko | LinkedIn: http://lnkd.in/FXPWxH ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
