Bill,

FYI, we have released all of our code to the OpenSolaris Project repository. We are closing in on the holy grail we seek, the single user prompt. Once we have this on ODW moving it onto EFIKA will be next.

We are looking for an ODW not being used to support a Developer involved in the OpenSolaris port effort. Please email us if you are willing to lend one to him. He is in the States and we will gladly pay for the shipping.

R&B :-)

Thanks! We found what we were looking for...

BTW, standby on for Solaris on PowerPC (we know we have been saying this for a while):

We will have a image for you to download and test shortly.

R&B :)

Hey Raquel and Bill,

Just thought I'd give you a quick update on our march to a single user prompt. Most of the shared libs are building as are some of the cmd apps. The kernel is loading & exec'g init and we're debugging that now. After which we should be getting to our 1st shell (sh). Timing on the debugging aspect is hard to predict accurately but we're hoping by next week... or sooner.
