I’ve had one of these since january.. they gave em out at linux.conf.au
Then you had JDS1. Now they have JDS2 and I believe JDS3 for Solaris.
JDS 3 is now part of the latest version of Solaris 10 Express, build 70 includes the merged 64bit version for AMD64/EMT64, it isn’t available to the public, however, are the end of November, IIRC, they’ve got a Solaris Express build with it; once fully tested, they’re going to make Solaris 10 gold edition available.
Remember, 15 Novemeber is the launch date *NOT* the shipment date.
Shipment date of Solaris 10 is:
January 31st.

Anyone has it on a faster pipe?
they should really set up a torrent for this. regular downloads feel…so…1999ish.
That link doesn’t work!
Sorry to clarify: Will there be a free amd64 build of solaris?
The correct link seems to be http://jdshelp.org/rpms/jds_cd.iso @ http://jdshelp.org/.
The link supplied is broken!
We’ll that one doesn’t work either.
http://rpms.jdshelp.org/jds_rs_lcd.iso
Please anyone? Can someone post a torrent link?
My apologies for the difficulties with the JDS Download from JDSHelp.org. We just posted the iso image and had no idea word had gotten out about it.
We have a mirror which has signficant capacity:
<ahref=”http://iso.linuxquestions.org/version.php?version=91#x86“>http:/…
Also, we’re putting a torrent up. Any recommendations are welcome.
All the best
Tom

At 10KB/sec the link posted above isn’t much use.
I managed to download 25MB before the connection timed out and died.
will wait for torrent
SUN is a big company, they should have a fast and reliable network to spread this live cd. It’s a shame that a billion dollar company doesn’t provide at least one fast server …
Maybe they’re all bark and no bite. and then again ….It must have something to do with the SOLSTICE ……..:(
Sorry to clarify: Will there be a free amd64 build of solaris?
Like the SPARC version of Solaris, it will be bundled with the x86 version, the installer will, if you have a 64bit CPU installed, the option between either a 64bit or 32bit environment.
have anyone esle tried this live cd? I got it downloaded, tried it, and now my hard drives are screwed, I am running Windows XP, and I had to reset the BIOS because it wasn’t even seeing the drives and now, it’s saying files are currupted. Worst Live CD I tried… Never experienced this before.
