[indiana-discuss] An introduction and Project Skylight

[Chris Bradley]

Yesterday I installed OpenSolaris 2008.11 and today I installed xVM using tools that I was given by e^ipi of the irc.freenode.net OpenSolaris chatroom. I did a quick read of the Xen manual, upgraded to 64 bit AMD with some other research notes I found on the web, and am now running Windows 7 Beta in an xVM hypervisor that I have named SkyLight. 

Most of my actual work revolves around media and making music, and publishing books, but I have been studying open source and Linux since 2005, and I have Found Sun Microsystems to be one of the most professional crews out there. I hold a 2 year degree in Computer Science, and am at present a subscribed member of the Microsoft Partner Program, Sun Startup Essentials, and IBM Partnerworld. I would like to do great things, and see if we can break down some barriers between the Linux, Solaris, and Windows worlds. 

Right now project Skylight needs to be documented, I have some snapshot photos to start placed here:

If anyone would like to help me get acclimated to posting to the wiki, and or second this motion to document the steps I took to get Windows 7 Beta installed in xVM, I would love to continue working on this with Sun. 

I thank you for your time in thoroughly reading my message,
And I wish you the best.
