I'm trying to download the USB version of SmartOS based on instructions here:

http://wiki.smartos.org/display/DOC/Download+SmartOS

This seems to download two images:

smartos-latest-USB.img.bz2

smartos-latest-USB.img.bz2.part

When I bunzip2 smartos-latest-USB.img.bz2 I get the following error:

bunzip2: Compressed file ends unexpectedly; perhaps it is corrupted? Possible reason follows. bunzip2: No such file or directory Input file = smartos-latest-USB.img.bz2, output file = smartos-latest-USB.img

It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted.

I've retried the download several times with the same error.

So, questions:

  • Why two files?
  • How can I get SmartOS on my USB stick?

Many thanks,

LRP

The file never finished downloading. "smartos-latest-USB.img.bz2.part" is the temporary file created by your browser; Firefox in this case. You should end up with a single image that can be written to your USB drive.

Try the process again.
