I have been thoroughly failing to keep up with LJ again. If there's something on, please tell me here. Hard to keep up with text telly and be creative — the UnNews is just jumping into the net without me even thinking about it. It's half way through the month and I've only done about eleven and a half thousand words, so it's not quite NaNoWriMo. Also, people might actually read it.
We looked at and applied for a lovely house on Saturday and
redcountess and
arkady paid the deposit today. Of course I WON'T THINK ABOUT IT unless and until we get it because THE DEAL'S NOT DONE UNTIL THE DEAL IS DONE. No it isn't. ... Lovely house, though.
Today was a pounding sodomite of a day at work, with me being the only one actually in until 12:30, when another co-sufferer showed up to cope with the industrial-grade stupid. It's very special being out of Christmas lockdown. I had to work!
From Friday evening (hence no Dreadnought. Bugger.) until the following Friday morning I am on call. As such, I am hereby putting out a call for people to meet me and GO OUT FOR A DRINK or ten tomorrow, Wednesday and/or Thursday. I'm looking at you ... And then of course there are people to visit me by day next week! There's a pub down the street in need of investigation ...

Date: 2007-01-17 06:18 pm (UTC)I downloaded the DVD of Solaris 10 this afternoon and, checking allt he bits and the .iso were correct (via MD5) burnt the DVD and put it in my Ultra 60 (which should run it no prob).
Except it doesn't. It displays the following:
Rebooting with command: boot cdrom
Boot device: /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3/disk@6,0:f File and args:
Bad magic number in disk label
Can't open disk label package
Evaluating: boot cdrom
Can't open boot device
(my bold) .. Any idea what this 'magic number' is and where I sort it out (nothing on Sun's download/install/etc pages)??
If it works I'll
have your babiesoops ... someone else got there first!(no subject)
