[OmniOS-discuss] The OmniOS "bloody" repo - now updated!

[Dan McDonald]

I've uploaded new bits (r151011) to the "bloody" repo, and I've made available ISO and USB images.  I've installed with the ISO successfully on a VM.  You can visit the "Get OmniOS" page:  http://omnios.omniti.com/wiki.php/Installation  and see the links.  Remember the difference between bloody and stable:   http://omnios.omniti.com/wiki.php/StableVsBloody

If you've still a bloody machine somewhere, know now that the http://pkg.omniti.com/omnios/bloody/ URI now serves r151011 packages.

This is the first time bloody has been active in a while, from what I can tell (it wasn't active when I started here).  If you like bleeding edge (and officially unsupported) bits, this is your place.  I may be upgrading all packages wholesale (which may make upgrading take longer), but I may only do them as they change.  I don't think I'll spin release media nearly as often as I will update the IPS server either, but again, this IS bloody, so that's the chance you and I take.  :)

There's not a WHOLE lot of difference between r151010 and bloody right now (just a few commits on illumos-omnios mostly), but that'll evolve over time.

Thank you folks, and please engage here with your feedback on the bloody repo.
