This documentation collection has been released under the Public Documentation License (PDL).
Note
When using these books, please bear in mind:
- The OpenIndiana Project has republished these books primarily for their reference value.
- Although vast portions of these books are still relevant, significant divergence has occurred between OpenIndiana Hipster and OpenSolaris/Solaris Express.
- Some of the books in this collection reference publications which were either never open-sourced by Sun Microsystems or never released by the OpenSolaris Project.
- For example, the OpenSolaris Developer's Reference Guide was never released as part of this collection. However, the illumos project has published a similar title: The illumos Developer's Guide
- There are lots of broken links to OpenSolaris.org and Sun Microsystems.
- In some cases, it may be possible to follow broken links by using the Internet Archive Wayback Machine.
