OpenSolaris 2008.11 on the test machine.
by admin ·
I’ve started something new two weeks ago. I’ve decided every Tuesday I will install and try out a new distribution for the week. This experience will be used to create distro reviews for my weekly (on Wednesday) Linuxkasts. Yes, I will have the first episode up sometime later today.
This weeks choice is OpenSolaris 2008.11. I installed it yesterday without much trouble, though far to many licence’s to read. This is my first experience with OpenSolaris, and I am intrigued by what I’ve seen so far, but, Sun makes it clear they have a different definition of the word open. With only a day in the seat, it’s to early to make any conclusions about the “open-ness” of OpenSolaris, however, all these EULA’s are cause for concern and if I see to many more of them I am likely not finish out the week.
