I'm a bit late replying the last time I was at the oracle campus a few weeks
ago I only saw solaris and windows machines so not all dev machines are RHEL
also all of oracle's backend production database machines are running solaris

In order to make blastwave an integral part of OpenSolaris, blastwave would
need to move towards an open build process.

IHMO, in order for OpenSolar
why not discuss opensolaris vs. linux from a programmers perspective?! the
main point of opensolaris/linux or any other OS is to do programming. maybe a
topic on the viability of programming opensolaris vs. linux would be useful. i
have recently installed opensolaris on my amd64 machine and hav

For me too. But then again, I used and still use /bin/tcsh from day one.

That's a severe hack.
Eventually if someone could put together an Ubuntu-like LiveCD for OpenSolaris,
this will be a really kick-8th excitement. OK OK I am asking too much.

Yes, oracle has pushed linux very hard. Especially in combination with RAC.
There are some things to keep in mind:

so why not release 10G Rev 2 for linux first (like earlier this week). I know

I always edit /etc/passwd manually to change root's shell to ksh and change
home to /root.
And add followings to /etc/profile:
VISUAL=vi
PS1=`uname -n`:'${PWD##*/}# '
export VISUAL PS1
This will enable vi commandline edit mode and also a nice prompt :-)

Oracle is a company in category #2 and it has moved from solaris to linux. all
dev. machines are RHEL. the base platform where the first release happens is
linux. solaris is a product line, like MVS/VMS/HPUX/AIX. care to explain that?
