today i installed the latest internal build of solaris onto my laptop and it is nice.
this build has integrated the new boot methods which casper has mentioned before. in brief, this means that the booting and installing solaris is a much quicker and easier experience on x86/x64 hardware than it has been in the past, and should open up the door to booting from all sorts of interesting devices (people are talking about booting from USB flashdrives and so on).
the cute thing about the new solaris boot is that if you don't like the text console messages popping up you can do away with them altogether, replaced by a rather spiffy solaris splashscreen. all this and more should appear in the next solaris software express release (the one after 4/05).
and of course, opensolaris™
