Most modern mature OSes distributions allow users to tune set of installed packages by simple procedures like selecting install profile Basic CLI server or Rich GUI Workstation and many of them offer even more precision profiling to better suit user OS usage profile - like for example profile optimized by size and amount set of packages in CLI server mode to get close to ideal OS profile for Virtual Images creation.
Here we present approaches and procedures how we can easily experiment with similar install profiles in OpenSolaris.

After upgrade of my home PC to AMD quad-core Phenom I got left some relatively powerful hardware:
Asus M2NPV-VM mATX motherboard with 2GB orf667Mhz DDRII and Dual Core Athlon X2 5400+ 65W
Normally I am selling old parts, but now I was wonder if I can build cheap OpenSolaris ZFS based file server from it.

For OpenSolaris Virtual Image and Virtual Appliances creation procces most important is , if we can load VMDK file created on VirtualBox into VMware Workstation in ESX server family products. Lets really try it for OpenSolaris 64bit.
For example for Devel, QA and LAB services can be important to make direct VMDK disk migration without to go throw painful OVF virtual disk compression/decompression.

One time my child was sick I need to work from home for longer time, unfortunately I was in this time assigned to project required a IPS repository access.
My network a home is not enough stable to use IPS remote mirror, so I as workaround use this script to create Home No-Network needed OpenSolaris Live-CD IPS REPO full mirror
I think you can find this approach and script helpful in home Virtual Appliances prototyping.[Read More]
