Assigned OpenCode (running natively on my BashCore OS) a full CTF mission using only BourneCore (my minimal illumos/OpenIndiana Unix live system) and its tools via SSH.
No GUI, no browser, just pure CLI.
BourneCore handled port‑knocking, SSH, RCE, privesc and full flag capture. All from a tiny VM (2 cores, 2GB RAM).
Two different OS working together as one solid cross‑platform lab.

New experiment: BourneCore is live!
A OpenIndiana (illumos) live USB for sysadmins who miss real Unix.
Boots straight to shell, packed with nmap/netcat/tshark & friends.Heads up: it's beta and a bit rough around the edges 😅 built it mostly for fun. If you poke at it and hit bugs, I'd genuinely love the feedback!

Fable dishing out the compliments that those of us running these systems for decades have always known and advocated for.
"That DTrace trace was the whole game, by the way — owner identity from mdb plus lock/unlock pairing found one orphaned acquisition in 55k events and its exact stack. Nice platform to debug on."

Building a Unix live ISO from scratch is pure awesomeness 🥰
My Unix development machine had zero GPU compatibility: a mountain of boot errors, GUI dead, straight to CLI 💀
Driven completely blind in a storm of hardware failures, the Unix kernel remained an absolute rock, letting me build the OS anyway 👊🏻
Just tasted the legendary Unix stability 🛠️💪🏻

Just discovered it's totally possible to build custom live ISOs based on OpenIndiana/illumos/SunOS.
I've just built my first one: it runs like a primordial internal combustion engine for now, but it's the right path!
The goal? A minimalist CLI toolbox for Unix (an OS I'm absolutely in love with) sysadmins. It's like a wrench of a very weird size, but it works. 🛠️

SmartOS – an open-source, Unix-like operating system derived from OpenSolaris. There is the OpenSolaris fork called illumos (before Oracle Corp. closed the source code in 2010), whose kernel forms the core of SmartOS. https://archiveos.org/smartos/ #unix #solaris #illumos

Playing around with OpenIndiana/illumos, a Unix descendant with real System V lineage going back to the original AT&T code 🫠
Not something I use daily, just curious to poke at it and learn a bit 🫠
Setting up a small custom flavor on top for fun, called BashCoreU ☺️ -

Where is the best place to get some #openindiana pointers?
I have been on the search engines for a few days.
How to set up a kvm Zone (sorry NO bhyve, I dont have any new intel stuff YET recommendations are welcomed)
How to set up an LX zone.
sofar this is what found
https://dlc.openindiana.org/docs/osol/20090715/SYSADRM/html/gentextid-20513.html
https://web.archive.org/web/20200425133600/https://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/7.3+KVM
https://docs.openindiana.org/handbook/systems-administration/#zones
man pages are fun
https://man.omnios.org/man8/zonecfg
https://illumos.org/man/8/zonecfgMy idea is to migrate away from my linux setup and use KVM where i cant get services in #opensolaris #illumos to work right away.
#tldr need help with zone creation with zonecfg in openindiana

The recording of the June 25th, 2026 #bhyve Production User Call is up:
We discussed the updated #illumos ‘dladm modify-vnic’ feature, the bhyve balloon driver, the nyetboot hobby firmware, SeaBIOS support, Netgraph, GNU/#Linux vs. #FreeBSD for vendors, VPP, VirtualBox to bhyve migration, and more!
"Don't forget to slam those Like and Subscribe buttons."
You can support all Call For Testing efforts via BSD Fund: https://bsdfund.org

I know it's not supposed to be like this; but I swear every time I need to recover an #illumos zone - including transferring them between installs using snapshots - I feel like motherfucking Indiana Jones. Between things like #zoneadmd and #beadm and magic #zfs flags, it's the worst kind of archeology trip.
Say what you might about #incus or #zones - IMHO, nobody matches the user-friendly ergonomics of @BastilleBSD for persistent containers.

Oh interesting! I wonder if it could be ported to BSD, then, since #Illumos is FOSS? :D
