Solaris fried
As I was waiting for linux to work on T1000 I played around a little with solaris 10. It's some kind of a different world for a linux user, but it's not completely unfamiliar.I installed gcc, eclipse with cdt and subversion, different gnu utilities like grep and tar (because the solaris versions are not ... well ... so much fun). It all worked fine. Using crosstool from Dan Kegel and compiling a build system I like - cmake - made me some headache. Finally I found some hint that adding "/usr/local/lib" to the standard solaris search path might help. "crle -l" is the tool for that. The german helptext said that this command would add a path to the search path. What it really does is replace the search path. That is what I know now.
So "crle -l /usr/locallib" definetly kills your system. Don't even think about using it. Solaris will not find the standard librarys anymore. I don't need to say, that crle requires a library to work. Needless to say that this setting is stored permanently. No chance to undo it.
A cure would be to boot from cd. But the T1000 has no cdrom drive.
So evaluating solaris is on hold at the moment. I hope Dave Miller solves the linux network problem soon ...

Well, Dirk is really living up to his nickname as we use to jestingly call him "Dirk 'rm -rf *' Eibach" since he accidently deleted a company-wide samba share for all employees.
