Warning: You are now entering The Bad Joke Zone!!! Well, I'm actually leaning more towards Linedance... Thank you. You are now exiting The Bad Joke Zone.
Sorry, just had to get that one off my chest...sort of to conceal that I haven't got the foggiest idea. I didn't even know that there were different methods. I have downloaded the DVD image and I'm going to start installing tomorrow morning. I suppose I can say with confidence that I would prefer to use the easiest method available! :-) The thing is I don't really need anything more fancy than to be able to have user groups where the groups can either only read, both read and write or none of the above. Certain movies should only be accessible from the bedroom, for instance... ;-) But then this is very basic, I suppose. So what method would you recommend for this? I know absolutely nothing about *Nix (isn't that the correct lingo?) yet, but I'm pretty good at learning as I go. I have an 80 gig drive that I'm gonna use as a root drive (I think that's what it's called), and I think my first ZFS experiments will be with a partition on that, without risking my DVD/HD collection in the beginning. If possible I will do the install with the drive connected to the PCI IDE card since the first drive on that shows up as the first drive on the computer (don't know why, all other motherboards I used had this on before has put the mobo IDE ports first). I'm so stupid I don't yet know if I'm gonna see a GUI when OpenSolaris is installed or only a command line. But what I see doesn't really matter, I will see and conquer! :-) Tor This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
