@jselea Thanks goes out to Jonathan for this (still quite relevant) tidbit. For those of us who spent a lot of time with Sun #Solaris up through Solaris 10 there's a lot to appreciate here.
Solaris has been parted out, but here is an Enterprise production scale incarnation that's worth a looksee and testdrive. It's really a shame that the Evil EllisonCo destroyed so much - just discarded it like trash, following aquisitions, and what they didn't toss out in the trash they dissappointed the developers so much that it spawned forks that exist to fill the vacuum to this day:
- MySQL ==> MariaDB
- OOo ==> LibreOffice (The Document Foundation)
- Sun Enterprise Servers - rebranded as Oracle boxes
- Sun Solaris 10 ==> OpenIndiana and others (OmniOS, for one)
- Sun VirtualBox - Oracle VirtualBoxSo without dwelling on the past or further ado, let's follow Jonathan's tour, shall we?

In the spirit of there always being 1 more #vi clone than one thinks, notice that @lpar 's list is lacking Ali Gholami Rudi's #neatvi which is packaged in #pkgsrc and about a decade old now.
https://pkgsrc.se/editors/neatvi
And even then the rule still applies. There's 1 more clone: Sterling Huxley's and Brent Roman's #viless, a quarter of a century old and what #BusyBox supplies.

Well thats a bummer, can't even boot #SmartOS on my dell T630, kernel throws some complaints about xhci (guessing it doesn't like something about the USB controllers or USB 3?) , crashes and reboots. Hrmm.. Nothing in the forums, just some vague references and ancient bug reports that didn't seem resolved.

After being hosed by #btrfs on #linux 7.0.1, the #atomdrift postgresql master database is on #OmniOS & #ZFS
It's good to be back, even if I'm rusty in Solaris-based environments.

I wrote up a quick howto for getting bob up and running on OmniOS for someone, but figured it might be useful for others who want to play too.
https://gist.github.com/jperkin/72075147e330b35eb4869898207e828e
Quite a minimal, stripped-back config, so doesn't have dynamic jobs configured. Easy to add though if you want to push your system to the max.

@BRicker I don't think it's really diverged much. #SunMicrosystems begat #OpenSolaris. Then Oracle unbegat it and the community begat #IllumOS by forking the last free release. There are then a bunch of distributions like #OmniOS and #Tribblix.
