Solaris 10

[markw at mohawksoft.com]

I am re-installing, yet again, Solaris 10. Why? Well I need it for a
project and I have to make sure my code compiles and runs on it.

I tell you, I have been using the self guiding Linux installers for
several years now, and Solaris, in that context, is a HUGE step backward.
Its like installing FreeBSD with a quick and dirty Java installer.

The now habitual, "ps ax" doesn't work on solaris, you have to use "ps
-e." Which is a pain.

There is no, that I can see, analogy to adept_manager where I can pick and
choose packages and install them easily with all the dependencies managed.

Has anyone even looked at Solaris lately?
