Sun had excellent documentation. But of course Oracle crapped all over it...

If you can find documentation for Solaris 9 I imagine a lot of it would be the same. And there's the Solaris 8 Administration book from O'Reilly - I'm sure you can find PDFs of that floating around.

Yes there's indeed a lot of doc available, but the main issue I discovered is figuring out what's still relevant when you mostly come from a Linux background.

Thanks for the PDF suggestion, I didn't think about looking for a book to get more context!

I learned a lot about Plan 9 by following a boot camp ran by SDF, I wish there was something like that to promote Illumos distributions
