In regard to: [OpenIndiana-discuss] An installation report and a few...:

I have successfully installed Hipster 18.04 on my home serve,

Welcome to OI!  You've indicated you're a Solaris neophyte, but you've
succeeded at some fairly technical challenges, especially your install
to raidz.

a Xeon D-1520
with 32GB RAM, 4x1TB HDD in raidz and dual 1Gb Intel NICs (It's an ASROCK
D1520D4I motherboard, just for the record).  I also have an Nvidia
GTX750-ti card in the PCI-e slot.  The only hardware in the system that
doesn't have a working driver is the Intel Management Engine.

As others have mentioned, if you have time and are so inclined, getting
a login for wiki.openindiana.org and adding this hardware to the
user-maintained hardware compatibility list (HCL) would be beneficial
for other users down the road.  Not a requirement at all, but nice if
you can find the time.

Regarding these messages:

in.ndpd[574]: [ID 302683 daemon.error] incoming_ra: SIOCSLIFLNKINFO
(interface igb0): Invalid argument
in.ndpd[574]: [ID 102006 daemon.error] prefix_update_k(igb0, igb0:6, ::/64)
from  to ONLINK  name is already allocated

Your home network is IPv6 enabled, and something is sending out router
advertisements (the "_ra" in "incoming_ra") that the Solaris/OI neighbor
discovery protocol daemon (in.ndpd) doesn't like.

Reading the in.ndpd manual, you might be able to avoid the messages if you
try turning off either stateless or stateful (or both) autoconfiguration.
See the section on "-a" and how to do that via the config file.  There's
also the "-d" option, which might provide additional info to narrow down
what's causing it.

There are people on the list with a very deep understanding of Solaris
(and OI) networking.  I'm not one of them.  :-) If you can packet-capture
the IPv6 traffic that is triggering the message and post it, others might
be able to definitively suggest a fix.

Good luck!

Tim
