Where to download OpenSolaris?
I don’t how about you but I have tried downloading OpenSolaris and I always failed in doing so. The reason is not the sucky streamyx we have in town, mostly it is because it so damn confusing just to get an installation media from them. Recently Ian Murdock, the founder of Debian, blogged about this on his blog.
I hope now that Ian joined Sun, OpenSolaris will become more Linux-like and people can just download one iso image burn it and boot up from the CD. This will help to popularize OpenSolaris, and of course Solaris.
However, there are a few derivatives from OpenSolaris, that are available to download via iso images.
- NexentaOS
- SchilliX ( SchilliX and OpenSolaris tensions )
- Belenix
