Is the main difference between & the shell script build system in github.com/omniosorg/omnios-bu vs the ports-like github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-user?
Or is there actually something interesting in the 4k commits diff between illumos-gate & illumos-omnios? I’m seeing almost entirely branding and file ordering changes. (Also, only 18 contributors!?)

@Toasterson @sjorge @dexter @papertigers Guess I need to dig into the image build & publish script. I had no idea those images were for aarch64. Maybe it’s worth adding arch to the already long file names.
Which is fun, I was wanting to dig into the same for to see about emitting a VMDK.

The dev machine is operational! on OCI AMD processor, delightfully boring. I still want to come back to spinning up an instance as a real workstation, but this works enough to get a build running.
Once I have it kicked off, I’ll start adding basic repeatability scripting, asset uploading, etc. eg continuous integration like it’s 1999.
Also, I’m going to start using just so I can find my messages later.

Grr, haven’t been able to get any terminal time today. I know I’ve got to get converted to VMDK, which should be a simple qemu-img command, then we can upload and import into OCI compute imaging.

Gave up futzing with instance principal authentication in OCI IAM and just used a pre-authenticated request to get the image uploaded & imported. Now I’ve just got to convert this raw disk image into a VMDK with qemu-img(1)…

Trying to spin up and instances over in oracle cloud because I don’t have any decent hardware at home anymore, and the irony is delicious.
I’m hoping the basic VMDKs just work, as much as I just love do a PXE boot install over there.
Now the real question is, by what criteria should I pick the one I stick with?

Ich habe gestern auf der Bucht ein Angebot für ein refurbished Notebook gesehen und das fand ich interessant. Interessant war auch das in der Anzeige ihr Ladengeschäft in Münster beworben wird, also bin och dorthin gefahren (150km) im zu testen ob das OS meiner Wahl darauf läuft. Dort angekommen war das beworbene Gerät nicht im Laden (ok, kann passieren) aber auch auf einem vergleichbaren Gerät durfte ich nicht einmal das LiveUSB booten zwecks Kompatibilitätsprüfung…

Once it was Solaris. Today it is well opened. My first installation, and it works pretty well.

Tonight I'm fixing a bug in WebMIDI implementation that was reported by the maintainer that also affected all other Unix platforms that aren't Linux. Sending positive vibes to all our non-tier-1 platforms, we love you all etc... I'm sure I missed some.

@pichan because when I code, I mostly code for me and if I write for others I prefer to stay portable, so having a not-so-mainstream OS helps me a lot with that.

First attempt at packaging to an :illumos_logo: distro. Got tangled in pkgsrc so / gets the first one:

github.com/omniosorg/omnios-ex

I imagine most of this work could be ported to once I get the details ironed out.

Preparing a presentation about some OpenShift details (which are actually k8s details) by building on /#illumos - it’s going to be wild :)
