Open Solaris Operating System
OpenSolaris is an open source operating system based on Sun Microsystems Solaris. It is also the name of the project initiated by Sun to build a developer and user community around it.
OpenSolaris is derived from the Unix System V Release 4 codebase, with significant modifications made by Sun since it bought the rights to that code in 1994. It is the only open source System V derivative available. Open sourced components are snapshots of the latest Solaris release under development. Sun has announced that future versions of its commercial Solaris operating system will be based on technology from the OpenSolaris project.

# bunzip2 CSKmemcached_1.3.1_i386.pkg.bz2
# gunzip gcc-3.4.6-sol10-x86-local.gz - pkgadd Serves to transfer packages to the system / to install a software. Suppose the two above packages we've uncompress, then for the installation do the following: # pkgadd-d gcc-3.4.6-sol10-x86-local or
