I am re-installing, yet again, Solaris 10. Why? Well I need it for a project and I have to make sure my code compiles and runs on it. I tell you, I have been using the self guiding Linux installers for several years now, and Solaris, in that context, is a HUGE step backward. Its like installing FreeBSD with a quick and dirty Java installer. The now habitual, "ps ax" doesn't work on solaris, you have to use "ps -e." Which is a pain. There is no, that I can see, analogy to adept_manager where I can pick and choose packages and install them easily with all the dependencies managed. Has anyone even looked at Solaris lately? -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
