All,
A big congratulations to the development team. My main SOHO server's OS
has not been upgraded since os_134b because OpenIndiana failed to
install for one reason or another. The last of the problems was with
bge and usb drivers. I tried oi_148b and finally have OpenIndiana
running. In fact, all the little projects I wanted to try (i.e.
netatalk) went without a hitch.
The only caveats I have for people upgrading are:
1) If you had SpamAssassin installed, the move from perl 5.8 to 5.10
means you'll have to install it again. The only issue I had was that
the spamc tests failed the build. I force installed it anyway since I
don't use spamc in my setup.
2) I'm still getting the occasional error in the logs:
mDNSResponder: [ID ... daemon.error] ERROR: getOptRdata - unknown opt 4
This seems to happen much less than it did in os_134b (I turned off
avahi and mDNS in 134b because of this).
That's it! Everything else went smoothly. Goodbye OpenSolaris, hello
OpenIndiana! Kudos. I'm a very happy camper.
I'll have to try oi_148b on my ThinkPad z61p laptop again. That was
getting close too. :)
Gary
