Sad to Sun finding it hard, especially when they are opening up so much. I think and hope things will improve for them in the future; I noticed Sun’s Java Desktop is now free and built on Solaris 10 Gonna have to try that.
I asked for the OpenSolaris started kit which eventually arrived, apparently over 700mb of physical memory is needed for install, is that correct? And yet to install JD with S10 all that is needed is 256mb of physival memory, can someone please explain.
Thanks,
David
