[Roel_D]

I just see this discussion and wonder if you tried pkg install slim_install
?

Hello folks

 

I am a newbie to openindiana.

I am considering using the 151a8 version as a production server, the server
will perform the following

 

1)      Server files via samba and NFS

2)      Run around 10 virtual machines using virtualbox, these machines
will be web servers and Microsoft AD and exchange boxes.

3)      ZFS is a must and I am considering openindiana as it will
probably have the most stable code base for zfs (as I cannot afford to
purchase solaris)

 

The load on this system will be very light but I need a server that will be
rock solid, as downtime is an serious issue.

 

I am seeking advice as the release notes state that 152a8 is a development
release ?

 

I appreciate all opinions in this regard.

 

Thanks in advance for your wisdom
