Hello,
is it possible to install the Software Express of Solaris 10 to my Blade
1500? I did not find any information about this.
Thanks

Yes...yes with no "but". Hmm, is this Solaris 10 or a pre-release?
I am downloading it but it takes about 4 hours.
Thanks

Solaris Express delivers the latest development snapshot of Solaris 10;
it is not the same as Solaris 10 simply because Solaris 10 has not
yet been released nor has it been finished yet.
Every two weeks all groups within Sun contributing to Solaris deliver
their latest bits; the Solaris express program selects the best bits[1]
of those biweekly builds and releases one each month.
The current Solaris Express release already contain a number of
the new features (zones, dtrace, privileges) but misses out on
Solaris 10 features yet to be integrated (notably ZFS).
Casper
[1] Or releases bits identical to the latest Beta release if those have not
been released before.

Ok, it doesn't matter of it isn't finished, I only want to test something
with printing and hope for a better result than on Solaris 8.

If I am "happy" about Solaris 10, I will take the subscription, so I can
test everything at this time.

What is ZFS, a replacement for UFS or something else?
Also, will a U2 300MHz be supported in S10 when released?

It's a new filesystem (but really, it's much more than that;
it incorporates volume management which makes for much
easier managament and gives "data integrity" a whole new dimension)
>Also, will a U2 300MHz be supported in S10 when released?
Yes. Anything Ultra over 200MHz will run it.

Interesting. It must be the "ultimate" in filesystems, after all
it went from UFS to ZFS, beating SGI/Linux XFS by two whole letters,
and leaving no letters left! (unless we start using another alphabet)
Seriously, we are looking forward to trying it.

Hello Casper

Do you or anyone else know, how to install? A simple boot cdrom takes no
effect, it did some conigurations and boot Solaris 8 again.
What are the steps to initialize the installation?
Thanks

Boot cdrom should "just work" just as with Solaris 8, provided
you boot the proper CD.

Yes I know, but yesterday it would not work, because of a not correct
plugged in USB device, which was found during scanning the devices.
I unplugged it and it installed like Solaris 8.

Well, you can start with 'a' i.e. aFS, bFS, ..., zFS, afS, ..., zfS, afs,
...., zfs. Lot more file systems to look forward to.
UNIX is case sensitive, you know.

You are right of course. With Unicode we are pretty much open ended. Now,
who is going to support all these file systems? :-)
