[http://www.sun.com/launch/ OpenSolaris 2008.05 released] , two distribution Live CD media are available:
| os200805.iso | GZIP compression | Primary Languages
|
| os200805g.iso | LZMA compression | All Languages
|
Install of GZIP based media os200805.iso is reported to be faster in Virtual Environments like xVM, VirtualBOX, Vmware or Paralles.
Note: You can add languages later from pkg.opensolaris.org network repository with pkg install
For example to add Czech language support install these packages:
pkg search -r -s | grep Czech
SUNWgnome-l10nmessages-cs GNOME software message files for Czech
SUNWlang-cs Czech language support
pkg install SUNWlang-cs SUNWgnome-l10nmessages-cs
Hint: You can also try OpenSolaris 2008.05 on many platforms using just released SUN VirtualBox version 1.6
