Well, in that case, you need to either wait or there are test images at http://80.235.90.220 (sorry for ip;) Also older ones at http://dlc-int.openindiana.org/tsoome/. However, the oi/illumos does not yet provide uefi boot.

As another obstacle, you will probably also need usb3, which is getting close, but not yet integrated. And finally, I do suspect you also will be missing GPIO, which we just do not support (yet).

As there is only quite small group of people doing reviews and contributions, things do not move as fast as we might hope.

rgds,
toomas

I would suspect the surface is only doing uefi boot.

Hello Everybody<OutlookEmoji-��.png>

I did install Open Indiana on desktop PCs not once...
But when I am trying to boot from the same bootable usb on Surface Book...
Black flash appears and then Windows starts loading...
To be sure that I did everything right... I tried to boot from CentOS bootable usb and everything is o.k. I was able to use mouse on the installation screen without keyboard as there's no drive even in Ubuntu for Surface Book keyboard...

So can't do but nothing...
Could anybody help to deal with this issue and also to make it possible to dual boot with Windows 10?

Best Regards
