Installing FUSE

Installing FUSE on OpenSolaris

 You can install the pre-built x86 packages by going here.

 Or you can build from source:

 Make sure you have developer software installed and set your path to use it. You'll need gcc-dev, Sun Studio Express and Mercurial:

pkg install gcc-dev sunstudioexpress SUNWmercurial

 You'll also need the ON Build Tools (for ctfconvert and ctfmerge). For that download SUNWonbld.i386.tar.bz2 from
http://dlc.sun.com/osol/on/downloads/current/ and then install the tools:

cd /tmp
bzcat SUNWonbld.i386.tar.bz2 | tar -xvf -
pfexec pkgadd -d onbld SUNWonbld

 Set up your path:

export PATH=/opt/SunStudioExpress/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sfw/bin:/opt/onbld/bin/i386

 Use Mercurial to get the source from the repository:

hg clone ssh://anon@hg.opensolaris.org/hg/fuse/libfuse
hg clone ssh://anon@hg.opensolaris.org/hg/fuse/fusefs

 Build the FUSE library

cd libfuse/
make
make install
make pkg

 Build the FUSE kernel module

cd ../fusefs/kernel
make
make install
make pkg

 Install both packages

pfexec /usr/sbin/pkgadd -d packages SUNWfusefs
pfexec /usr/sbin/pkgadd -d ../../libfuse/packages SUNWlibfuse
