00:02:37 <BarryBenson> What are the bare essential tools I need to make a bootable Illumos ISO?
00:11:58 <BarryBenson> I know I need a shell, but I feel like there is a whole suite of tools I need that I am not considering
11:17:33 <domag02> hi!
11:28:45 <domag02> Today I got this e-mail with "illumos" subject line, from Peter Liu <peter⊙ccc>:
11:28:45 <domag02> (This email is very urgent, therefore we kindly ask you to pass it to your CEO. In case you think this was forwarded to you by mistake, please simply disregard it. Thank you.)
11:28:46 <domag02> Dear CEO,
11:28:46 <domag02> This email is from China domain name registration center, which mainly handles the domain name registration in Shanghai, China. A request was received from our end from Baotong Ltd on July 6, 2025. They wish to register "illumos" as their internet keyword and Chinese domain names (illumos.cn, illumos.com.cn, illumos.net.cn, illumos.org.cn). But
11:28:47 <domag02> after we check it, we notice this name conflicts with your business name or brand name. In order to resolve this issue properly, it's necessary to send this email to you and confirm if this company is your distributor in China?
11:28:47 <domag02> Best regards
11:28:48 <domag02> Peter Liu

11:28:50 <domag02> Has anyone else received a message like this?
15:04:43 <sommerfeld> domag02: I've received similar for domains I control.  internet wisdom is that it's a scam of some sort.

17:50:49 <szilard> Hi.
17:52:47 <szilard> I have decided to bite the bullet and invest in some consumer grade server hardware, so I have bought a Fujitsu TX1320 M3. According to the plan it should replace my Lenovo Thinkcentre m710q build running OmniOS. The main driving reason is the expendability.
17:57:26 <szilard> This server is nothing new or fancy, it have the following spects: G4650 (2c/4t @ 3.5Ghz), 16GB 2400Mhz ECC UDIMM, HBA: onboard, supports 4 SATA via MiniSAS-HD, additionally a Fujitsu PRAID CP400i Dual MiniSAS-HD, 8xSAS3/SATA. The mobo also have 2 SATA ports + 1 internal USB. iRMC S4, activated KVM and Remore Media license
17:58:17 <szilard> the CP400i based around LSI's 3008, and it is flashed with IT mode.
19:37:42 <tsoome_> szilard what storage?
19:40:14 <szilard> tsoome_: According to the plan it should have 2.5" SATA drives. Probably mixed.
19:40:30 <szilard> There is no NGFF slots on the motherboard.
19:40:54 <tsoome_> sata for space?
20:49:48 <szilard> tsoome_: yep.
