This DVD is big already and its really basic :

$ ls -lap
total 26
drwxr-xr-x   6 root     root         512 Mar  3 11:43 ./
drwxr-xr-x  25 root     root         512 Mar  2 19:13 ../

So we see 2.5GB for the DVD ISO thus far and I have not put in the
article contents for installation instructions.

If anyone wants to see my work and mistakes here it is :

[ warning .. this is raw images and I am creating text now ]

(1) SchilliX 0.5.1

http://www.blastwave.org/dclarke/opensolaris/SchilliX/

I screwed up totally with this and need to redo everything.  The
README file that I needed is now on the DVD ISO and I need to go back
and redo SchilliX from square zero.

(2) BeleniX

http://www.blastwave.org/dclarke/opensolaris/BeleniX/

(3) Nexenta

    (3.1) Nexenta Live CD

            http://www.blastwave.org/dclarke/opensolaris/Nexenta/live/

    (3.2) Nexenta Install CD

            http://www.blastwave.org/dclarke/opensolaris/Nexenta/install/


More things will appear as I continue to work.

Like text for example :-)

All work was done with VMWare WorkStation running on RHEL 4 AS 64-bit
which locked up repeatedly during the process.  I had to login and
kill off vmware as well as reboot twice.  I have no idea why.  I
suspect something is less than wonderful with my RHEL4 install.  I'm a
Solaris guy and I am not used to having a desktop lockup on me at 3AM
for no reason other than some disk activity.

Work continues ...
