Thank you, I was wondering why.

If it is common, perhaps it would be nice to add it somewhere on the 
OpenIndiana wiki or Handbook.

I am still testing my system, later on I could send a pull request with 
that text.

The more I use OpenIndiana, the more I love it!

Now, I will try to install it on two more machines, an HP Z620 
workstation with Xeon E5, and a custom made workstation with AMD 1950X 
Threadripper. I will report back.
