一個可能在 Run PC 出現的問答－PC Run OpenSolaris：
問：請問 OpenSolaris 在 PC 上也可以 Run 嗎？
答：其實在 PC 上可以 Run 的作業系統有很多。大家都熟知的 Windows 當然是一種， Linux 當然也是一種，另外像 Solaris/OpenSolaris 其實也可以在 PC 上 RUN。 OpenSolaris 是一個像 Linux 一樣開放原始碼的作業系統。它也和 Linux 一樣提供有 LiveCD 或 LiveUSB 可以用光碟或 USB 開機。如果在姆指碟有開機的作業系統及儲存資料的空間，找到一台支援 USB 開機的 PC，您馬上可以有台比『小筆電』還炫的『姆指電』。配合未來的『雲端』環境，以後網咖只要提供『姆指電』的插槽，每個使用者都可以有個人開機的環境及『本地』和『雲端』的儲存空間。
說到『雲端』與『姆指電』，今天是記者節，很幸運有機會訪問到 Chao-Chin Hung 大大。 Chao-Chin Hung 大大對『姆指電』可是研究了一段時間。不過因為我不是記者，因此您會看到的是我整理後的筆記而不是一問一答實況報導的訪問記錄。有那麼一點點抱歉...
以下是採訪 Chao-Chin Hung 大大的記實：
我們的計劃是在姆指碟上有一個區域是用來存放開機用的 Live USB 影像，另外有兩個區域是 ZFS 及 FAT32 用來存放資料。基於一些可能的限制，我們將 FAT32 放在第一個分割。在姆指碟上分成兩個分割(Partition)，分別是 FAT32 及 Soalris 2。在 Solaris2 中再分為兩個切片(Slice)，分別為 UFS 及 ZFS 的檔案系統。其中切片 0 使用 UFS 檔案系統，而切片 1 使用 ZFS 檔案系統。
MBR | P1: FAT32 | P2: Solaris 2
|
對於空間大小的規劃則為：Live USB 1.5GB，ZFS 0.5GB，其餘的則保留給 FAT32。
- 直接下載，目前 OpenSolaris 的安裝下載網址通常都提供了 ISO 及 USB 兩種格式的選擇。
- 自行製作，這個部份也許下次有機會採訪 Chao-Chin Hung 大大時再報導。
可以使用以下幾種方式取得姆指碟的影像檔：
參考以下的程序安裝 Distribution Constructor，以便使用 usbcopy 工具：
root@X-Wing:~ # pkg install SUNWdistro-const
DOWNLOAD PKGS FILES XFER (MB)
Completed 1/1 75/75 0.2/0.2

Install Phase 106/106
root@X-Wing:~ # pkg list SUNWdistro-const
NAME (PUBLISHER) VERSION STATE UFIX
SUNWdistro-const 0.5.11-0.118 installed u---
在將 USB 姆指碟插入電腦之後檢查是否偵測到設備：
root@X-Wing:~ # rmformat 正在尋找裝置... 1. Logical Node: /dev/rdsk/c3t0d0p0 Physical Node: /pci@0,0/pci1179,1@1a,7/storage@1/disk@0,0 Connected Device: USB Flash Disk 5.00 Device Type: Removable Bus: USB Size: 4.0 GB Label:Access permissions: 媒體沒有寫入保護。
使用 fdisk 指令可檢視目前姆指碟的現況：
root@X-Wing:~ # fdisk /dev/rdsk/c3t0d0p0
Total disk size is 509 cylinders
Cylinder size is 16065 (512 byte) blocks
Cylinders
Partition Status Type Start End Length %

2 Active Solaris2 380 508 129 25
SELECT ONE OF THE FOLLOWING:
1. Create a partition
2. Specify the active partition
3. Delete a partition
4. Change between Solaris and Solaris2 Partition IDs
5. Exit (update disk configuration and exit)
6. Cancel (exit without updating disk configuration)
Enter Selection: 6
記錄下來一個磁柱的大小(有多少個區塊)。確認目前並無掛載此一姆指碟上的分割或切片，若有則進行卸載：
root@X-Wing:~ # mount -p | grep c3t0d0
/dev/dsk/c3t0d0s0 - /media/Flash Disk ufs - no rw,nosuid,intr,largefiles,logging,xattr,onerror=panic

root@X-Wing:~ # umount /dev/dsk/c3t0d0s0
root@X-Wing:~ # umount /dev/dsk/c3t0d0p0:1
清除姆指碟的第一個磁柱：
root@X-Wing:~ # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/c3t0d0p0 bs=512 count=16065
進來 16065+0 個記錄
出去 16065+0 個記錄
參考以下程序劃出 FAT32 及 SOLARIS2 的分割：
root@X-Wing:~ # fdisk /dev/rdsk/c3t0d0p0

a 100% "SOLARIS System" partition

使用 ZFS 的指令建立一個名叫 venus 的儲存池：

針對原版的 usbcopy 做了以下幾個修改：
- 由於 usbcopy 在 zh_TW.UTF-8 的 locale 無法正常執行(在複製影像檔的程式段會有問題)，因此加入語言環境變數的設定。
- 說明會將姆指碟的 Solaris 分割中的切片0覆寫
- 不執行劃分磁區分割
- 不執行劃分磁區切片
- 增加擴大 UFS 檔案系統的動作
