(EN) OpenSolaris b106 : Installation into USB Memory
OpenSolaris b106 supports to install OSes into USB memory.
The way to install OpenSolaris into USB memory is written in this content.
- Boot OpenSolaris with LiveCD or LiveUSB.
In this time, does not connect USB memory, you want to install OpenSolaris, to PC. - After boot OpenSolaris LiveCD/LiveUSB, connect USB memory for installation.
When OpenSolaris mount usb memory automatically, unmount it.
- Double click Installer icon and start the Installer.
- Install OpenSolaris into USB memory with the Installer.
=========================================================================
Additional Infomation
In my environment, OpenSolaris often output warning message like
" this device cannot boot "
and reboot in the boot phase.
I have decreased the trouble by addition of the usb memory information into /kernel/drv/scsa2usb.conf .
I do not know whether this way is best way to reduce trouble or not.
The way to edit is as follows.
- Boot OpenSolaris with LiveUSB or LiveCD.
- Import rpool with -f option.
$ zpool import -f -a
A Small Tip If two or more pools named "rpool" exists in your pc, for example OpenSolaris and Solaris Express are in the same box, you can import the pool, you want to import, using pool id.
At first, execute zpool import with no option, zpool command output pool informations, which does not be imported.
When two or more pool exists, everything is displayed.
$ zpool import pool: rpool id: 6178916327464335414 state: ONLINE status: The pool is formatted using an older on-disk version. action: The pool can be imported using its name or numeric identifier, though some features will not be available without an explicit 'zpool upgrade'. config: rpool ONLINE c12t0d0s0 ONLINESecond, import pool by zpool import with pool id.
$ zpool import -f 6178916327464335414
- Change mount point of rpool/ROOT/opensolaris from / to legacy.
$ zfs set mountpoint=legacy rpool/ROOT/opensolaris
- mount rpool/ROOT/opensolaris with mount -F zfs command.
$ mount -F zfs rpool/ROOT/opensolaris /mnt
- Add USB memory information into /mnt/kernel/drv/scsa2usb.conf as follows.
At first, find USB memory name by rmformat command.
Name of the USB memory of the following sample is " PicoDUAL " .
$ rmformat Looking for devices... 1. Logical Node: /dev/rdsk/c11t0d0p0 Physical Node: /pci@0,0/pci1462,6510@1d,7/storage@2/disk@0,0 Connected Device: GH PicoDUAL PMAP Device Type: Removable Bus: USB Size: 15.3 GB Label:Access permissions: Second, execute the following command.
$ prtconf -v > /tmp/a
Third, find usb-vendor-id , usb-product-id and usb-revision-id of your USB memory.
In this sample, usb-vendor-id is 00000a6b, usb-product-id is 0000000f and usb-revision-id is 00000110 .
name='usb-product-name' type=string items=1 value='PicoDUAL' name='usb-vendor-name' type=string items=1 value='GH' name='usb-serialno' type=string items=1 value='078C06810B04' name='usb-raw-cfg-descriptors' type=byte items=32 value=09.02.20.00.01.01.00.80.64. 09.04.00.00.02.08.06.50.00.07.05.81.02. 00.02.00.07.05.02.02.00.02.00 name='usb-dev-descriptor' type=byte items=18 value=12.01.00.02.00.00.00.40.6b.0a.0f.00.10.01.01.02.03.01 name='usb-release' type=int items=1 value=00000200 name='usb-num-configs' type=int items=1 value=00000001 name='usb-revision-id' type=int items=1 value=00000110 name='usb-product-id' type=int items=1 value=0000000f name='usb-vendor-id' type=int items=1 value=00000a6bAdd USB memory information and removable=false option into attribute-override-list in /mnt/kernel/drv/scsa2usb.conf like following.
# ANYTHING CHANGED BEFORE THIS POINT MAY BE OVERWRITTEN IN UPGRADE attribute-override-list = "vid=0xa6b pid=0x0f rev=* removable=true";
- umount mountpoint.
$ umount /mnt
- Back mountpoint information to / .
$ zfs set mountpoint=/ rpool/ROOT/opensolaris

I was installed OpenSolaris b106 into USB memory on Panasonic Let's note W4.
And, other computer (MCJ Co,.Ltd m-book P650) can boot with this usb memory.
Let's note W4 is centrino technology environment, display size is 1024x768(XGA).
m-book P650 is centrino 2 technology environment, and graphics chip is GeForce 9600M GT,
display size is 1650x1050(WSXGA).
OpenSolaris, install into USB memory, automatically recognize graphics chip and display size and so on.
I think that OpenSolaris USB Memory version is very useful!
