		<description><![CDATA[Sun have done some work in recent times with liveupgrade &#8211; the last time I looked at it, a few years back now, it was rubbish. I thought it was about time I took another look, since a lot of the updates in OpenSolaris were looking good.
The idea was to patch a Solaris 10 update [...]]]></description>

Having chosen to use a very stripped out sysidcfg, with no name services, enabling NIS after installation should have been as simple as setting up the [...]]]></description>

AI replaces what we&#8217;ve all come to know and love, JumpStart.
There are a couple of issues with AI at the moment, from my own point of view.

Blastwave was a nice solution, but with OpenCSW splitting away from them and the two camps now delivering the same packages to the same disk hierarchy we&#8217;re left with too much choice and a confusion of options. They&#8217;re still both a good solution, [...]]]></description>

However, try as we might, the XenServer wouldn&#8217;t make use of [...]]]></description>
