It installed fine. True, gparted did not work, but the graphical installer selected the entire available partition, though it only used 7.3Gb. Rebooted fine (apparently the boot loader was installed), except system/xvm/ipagent:default failed repeatedly and was transitioned to maintenance; but the gui interface loaded and I logged in.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Link to OI202110 is Missing
There is sha256sum problem, specifically: 1) On http://dlc.openindiana.org/isos/hispter/ the sha256sum for the Live DVD has 31 Oct 21 in the filename and the contents begin with 061466e 2) On https://dlc.openindiana.org/isos/hipster/, which is where I landed moments ago by following the link to the mirrors, the sha256sum for the Live DVD has 30 April 21 in the filename and the contents begin with 66e8bac Thus, your download appears to be accurate and the sha256sum files appear to be mixed up. It looks like the correct sha256sum for the 31 Oct 21 iso is in the 20210430 sha256sum file. So, you can check this for yourself and I believe you will find that your download was good. Whoever is reponsible for the website should correct this error (IMHO). FWIW, I downloaded that iso some time ago and installed it. I also just moments ago also downloaded it again, just for kicks. Hope this his helpful. e.

You shouldn't expect immediate answers there. We have separate downloads for DVD's (.iso images) and USB sticks (.usb images). There is a PR to change this but it is not yet fully tested. The problem you got is typical for the case the the install medium is not detected. You will end in a minimalistic environment. Most likely this is caused by the fact that you have used an ISO image for a USB stick. Andreas Thank you, Andreas, for your reply, which was accurate and helpful. The .usb image installed.
