Nevertheless there are a couple of derivates from the OpenSolaris,</div><div>some commercial (like NexentraStor and SmartOS), some free (like openindiana, OpenSXCE, and DilOS). Most of them share Illumos (<a href="http://wiki.illumos.org">http://wiki.illumos.org</a>) as a common base. While the commercial derivates typically have specialist usages (e.g. NexentraStor as big, reliable storage solution and SmartOS as a virtualization solution), the free offerings are still more or less general purpose OS's. In my eyes the most promising is openindiana (<a href="http://wiki.openindiana.org">http://wiki.openindiana.org</a> and for ISO’s: <a href="http://dlc.openindiana.org/isos/">http://dlc.openindiana.org/isos/</a>).</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Andreas</div><div><br></div></body></html>
