Developer Build 130 of OpenSolaris is available for download. The release notes are available as usual in the mailing list indiana-discuss. So update your system via the Package Manager or download it via torrent or genunix.org. Besides the changes introduced by the update to the ONNV 130 there were some interesting changes to the distribution mechanism:

The ability to install on to an iSCSI target
A new "bootable" Automated Install (AI) CD and USB ISO that does not require an AI server to be setup
Distribution Constructor enhancements to create OVF 1.0 virtual machine (VM) images
Extended and logical partition support for both the Live CD and AI installers

Maybe it's a little bit off topic.

I lost a little bit the connection to topic unattended install, comparable to Jumpstart.
Is AI part of a replacement project for jumpstart? Or am i completely wrong?

Have a good start into the new year and good luck.

With kind regards.

I just finished a testing OpenSolaris IB-and-FC-drivers/multipathing and had good experience with OpenSolaris 2009.06 x86 LiveCD for everything that I need.

We are now preparing a box that would go into production, and re-installing everything from scratch.

For my case, how stable is the Developer Build 130 in comparison to 2009.06 ?
