I have a running system now. Thank you very much, Michal! I used your snapshot, OpenIndiana_Text_X86.usb
I installed, rebooted, did pkg update, rebooted, did pkg install mate_install, rebooted, did pkg uninstall mate_install, rebooted. Then I put mate-session into .xinitrc. startx then starts up Mate! Super! I’m glad to have “Solaris” again. I first used it in the mid-‘80s, when I bought a Sun2 for the lab I worked at. Eventually I became a sysadmin and used Sun hardware for about 17+ years. I also ran BSD Unix, from 4.2BSD onwards. > On Sep 26, 2019, at 2:54 PM, Michal Nowak <[email protected]> wrote: > >> I think I will also try the GUI installer again. > > I believe the GUI installed is inferior (and not very actively maintained) to > the textual one and it's a good idea to use the textual one from the Live > medium, where possible, should you want desktop. ==Leonard Sitongia _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
