Hello All, I have an idea for building my own distribution of OpenIndiana on
sparc but I have NO IDEA how to build a distribution.
Can somebody make a tutorial to get me started?

Somebody should 'plain english' the new EULA for Solaris 11.
That way we can compare the licensing advantages of OpenIndiana.

Best to avoid bad licenses, as soon as OI is available for SPARC I plan on
backing up my Sunfire v210 and reinstalling.
NO WAY am i going to let Oracle dictate how i am going to use MY software.
Whats worse, I'm a developer... as a developer I refuse to support any
company that forces me to pay the

It is really good to see all this discussion and speculation about OI and
Illumos.
I have yet to see anybody flame somebody over an opinion or statement.
Most of the statements have been thoughtful, well informed, and well
supported arguments.
Wonderful example of a strong opensource community.

Well you raise a good point.
Lets not make the same mistakes that others have made.
Learn from history so we don't repeat it, that will make the community stand
out, thats what we want.
We want people to know that we are here to continue the innovation that
solaris and sun represented.
So instead

No you are correct, I've read it already.
This model worked for Redhat before it was split into 2 separate projects. I
figured why not skip a step.

I think Guido, our friend Jonathan means that not unlike alot of other
distrobutions of UNIX-like
operating systems, it might be a good idea to create a Desktop and A server
version.
This is not a horrible idea, like the fedora/Redhat projects respectively.
However the SXDE/Solaris model function
quick hack.
create a symbolic link see if that works.

WOW!
Oracle really lost out when they started pushing the Sun/Open Source
communities around now didn't they.
Effectively pushing the open office brands worth into the toilet.
Well done Larry, well done.
Next question is, how much more pushing are you willing to do.
We have your operating system
You're more then likely right, look at GNU all it took was one mans Kernel
and viola
Now most UNIX(not including FreeBSD/OpenBSD) in comparison don't have a
fighting chance on smaller systems and reside mostly in niche markets.

Let me know if this is needed and/or wanted.
Keep in mind I am still on residential DSL.(hopefully will be shortly

Agreed, I am in the same position.
I recently purchased an EOL SunFire v210 as a supplement to my network for
extended services.
Most of my Network is dedicated to development.
Now since it is a SPARC I have few options available. Knowing weather or not
Solaris 11 will be free to the masses is som
nflux of investor capital.
again off topic commencing the shutting of face.

I wonder if it would be worth the trouble to scrape names of the packages
from each of the distributions repositories.
Output each to a text file and compare them. That might make an interesting
study. see which packages are included in all the distributions and and
which are only included in each
lol i barely use sudo this is how I do it.
sudo bash. Done.

Yep, Mind you the releases between Debian Stable states, is pretty far
between and really not that fair.
Now if you compare to Slackware stable releases that might be a better
match, as the Slackware crew is a bunch of sticklers when it comes to
stability. Which is what makes the distribution so g
you should include slackware.
