Forum rules


Please read the following rules before posting a download request in this area:

1. Don't post a request if you have under 10 posts as stated on the front page. If you do anyway, it will be deleted without further notice. This also applies to other members: If you see a request by someone with less than 10 posts and it hasn't been deleted yet, please don't reply to it.
2. Don't request for warez or any copyrighted software. Only betas (no matter how old or new) and finals of operating systems and applications that are at least 10 years old and therefore classified as abandonware are allowed to be uploaded to and shared on the BetaArchive FTP server.
3. If you have your own FTP server where you'd like other members to upload what you're looking for to, please don't post its login details in any open forum as that will probably lead to abuse. Post the login details in the Private Servers section instead.
4. Check that we don't already have the file on our FTP servers. If you don't have access to the FTP servers then ask someone who has (a moderator for example).

For a short time Sun put out a Linux distro called Sun JDS. This was before Solaris 10 was released on 05. There was a live CD available from Sun that was floating around sometime in 2004. Anybody have an ISO of this they could upload? Thanks.

edit- I think the filename is jds_rs_lcd.iso for the live CD

IIRC, JDS was a desktop environment for Solaris, not a full distro.
It also hadn't anything to do with Linux.

I have this Live-CD. I got it from the german computer expo CeBIT. It's based on Linux. Will make a ISO-Image tomorrow !

That's actually not true.
JDS was made available on SuSE Linux too.
It's not a distro anyway, but the OP is probably talking about a SuSE Linux based live CD showing off JDS.

You probably got it from SuSE, german Linux company.
That live CD would be awesome!
Thank you for sharing. ;)

You are all wrong, do a search on google, there was Sun Java Desktop System 2003, Release 2, and Release 3 (beta,unreleased) I have the first two "distros". They are based on SUSE Enterprise Linux 8 and 8.1. The live CD (I have that too) is a Knoppix based version that cannot install to the hard drive. They are using kernel version 2.4.19.
