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 🛠️💪🏻

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

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

Prices for dedicated servers and VPS instances are raising more and more! Guess what…
#BoxyBSD still provides free VMs to people who want to learn #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #NetBSD or even #Illumos / #opensolaris - all with full #ipv6 support - of course! #LearnBSD & #RUNBSD

nwadm on wan interface only?
or should I disable nwamd all together and use ipadm dhcp?
I am still on my router firewall project 🤭🤭
Reason i ask is because i don't have a friggin clue since i went in head first trying to build a fw / router with Tribblix
And got wierd results when my rj45 was connected to incoming internet -

@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.

Truth be told, I'm kinda getting into #Solaris again, for the first time since the initial #OpenSolaris excitement.

Wie beliebt ist eigentlich #OpenIndiana / #Illumos als #OpenSolaris-Fortführung? Man hört so wenig über #Solaris. Ich würde naiv meinen, das müsste doch höhere Produktreife als FreeBSD haben. Solaris war doch eines der coolsten UNIX’.

We just provide #BSD like #freebsd #openbsd #netbsd #dragonflybsd #midnightbsd and several other ones, but also #opensolaris with #tribblix #omnios #openindiana. So, we’re also pretty niche and that’s totally fine ;)

The new @BoxyBSD platform gained some new features for a better #BSD experience!
* The new portal now also finally supports VNC access to your BSD based VPS instances!
* You can finally select ISO files which offers you even to install any BSD or #OpenSolaris version from scratch or to install your VPS instance based on your personal needs without relying on a ready2use image. More images can be added upon request quickly. Simply get in touch with @gyptazy
* You can now get up to 2 free VPS instances to test and evaluate HA setups, multi-region setups etc.
* Extended DN42 peering (where you can also use your DN42 IPv4 addresses)
This is created by @gyptazy and if you're interested into more information, just come to the FOSDEM 2026 for a chat!

Została wydana nowa wersja OpenIndiana 2025.10 „Hipster”. OpenIndiana to otwartoźródłowy system operacyjny z rodziny UNIX, powstały na bazie nierozwijanego OpenSolaris. OpenIndiana jest częścią Illumos Fundation, do której należy również uniksowy system operacyjny Illumos. https://linuxiarze.pl/openindiana-2025-10/ #unix #solaris #opensolaris #illumos

I wonder... now that we've seen Red Hat under IBM's auspices for a few years, how would have IBM buying Sun (instead of Oracle) back in the day panned out?

Can someone tell me the advantage in using #OpenIndiana / #OpenSolaris over Linux / FreeBSD? Con: no #elixir or #erlang on board

Solaris 10 was a total revelation back in the day. Kids these days will never witness something like that.
Cynicism has killed most of genuine curiosity.

#IllumosCafe Hopes To Reinvigorate Interest In Illumos/OpenSolaris Derived Platforms
It's been 15 years since #Illumos project was formed as based on the #OpenSolaris codebase after Oracle's acquisition of Sun Microsystems and closing down OpenSolaris. Illumos Cafe is a new effort akin to BSD Cafe aiming to be a resource and helping to reinvigorate interest in Illumos-based platforms.
