ZFS on OS X

22 Mar

I started to use zfs on OS X. After some panics it seems to run stable.

Because I became annoyed from the ugly icon which appeared every time I activated my zfs-pool, I hacked an icon using Preview. It shows the four My Book devices which I used to create the pool.

Probably I will take some time to make a better one with The Gimp.

Solaris with Parallels

10 Dec

Today I installed Solaris 10 on Parallels, because I’ve trouble to get puppet running on my fresh leopard machine. After successful installation I realized that there was no network adapter configured. To enable the NIC I had to use /Library/Parallels/Tools/vmtools.iso as the cdrom-drive. It will be automounted. On Solaris I’ve made

#!/bin/bash
# installs paralells network driver on solaris 10
cd /cdrom/prltools/drivers/network/rtl8029/solaris
./network.sh

this installs the correct driver for the NIC and configures it.
