    Nexenta?

    Ok, I'm sorta wondering what the HECK this thing is. It says that it is a mix bewteen Linux and Opensolaris. Dont gett me wrong, I'm all for it, I'm just curious about it.


    Is it possible to dual boot Ubuntu and nexenta? And if so, can the two have the same home directory? Thanks
    All right now I have a better idea than the dancing banana idea, mmkay?

    Haha, no problem. I don't know if you can dual-boot them but there is no reason why you can't try

    Yeah. It's based on Ubuntu and opensolaris, so it must be fun to try
