OpenIndiana 2025.10 ISOs were published on Sunday as the newest half-year update to this Illumos (OpenSolaris) derived platform.

OpenIndiana continues to be the most prominent distribution born out of the forked OpenSolaris code and with desktop support albeit hasn't quite had the traction as from some years ago.

There hasn't been any release announcement yet for OpenSolaris 2025.10 on OpenIndiana.org but in recent releases anyhow the they have been minimally informative.

I tried out the OpenIndiana Hispter 2025.10 USB image on an AMD Strix Point laptop. Unfortunately, it only got as far as beginning to boot the Illumos kernel before it was restarting. Unfortunately, the Illumos/OpenIndiana hardware support has been lagging behind in recent years compared to Linux and even the BSDs.

The OpenIndiana 2025.10 images are available for download from dlc.openindiana.org.
