Operating Systems Solaris Is it possible to install Solaris softwares on Open Solaris or Open Indiana? Post 302607062 by firstpost on Tuesday 13th of March 2012 12:59:59 PM

Yeah, you're right, but I was expecting at least to see the installation launcher even if it would fail during the installation process.

Is that common the error "Invalid Argument" when the installation is being tried on a wrong architecture?

Also, as you said, CDE is included with Solaris up to version 10. Is it still possible to install it on version 11? or Open Indiana?
Also, I'll double check but I don't think it's included on Open Solaris 2009.06

Anyway, thanks a lot again for your help.
