I believe idea is really brilliant and I love Nexenta in general. Just still very buggy and seems like not very dynamic development so far: some bugs persists for quite long time. There is also Milax — you can try look at that stuff as well. Pretty much nice and clean (so far). However, I prefer go with real stuff — OpenSolaris itself. It is very classic, sometimes too much conservative and IPS could have dependency resolver (when building an OS distro) and overall mirroring support. But on the other hand, if you want have something on a production, then I would not go experiments, if I were you. Hope this helps. -- Kind regards, bm ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

Yes, NCP's Desktop side components (X/Gnome/XFCE) is untested, and explains the issues. The focus is on the core.. and it has been so since the move from Gnusolaris (the older Gnome based Nexenta) to Nexenta Core platform. The idea was and remains that interested community members can build off it. One example is StormOS, and XFCE based distro being built on NCP2. According to the latest blog entry.. a release is imminent. Perhaps you'll have better desktop experience with this.
