What differences with illumian?

  • DilOS and illumian based on dpkg+apt, but DilOS have updates for apt and dpkg - for example: -R <dir> extension - more friendly with IPS pkg. 
  • As I know illumian is focusing on delivery the same binaries with OpenIndiana by dpkg+apt. DilOS is focusing on development environment with new components without GUI and works with zones DPKG & IPKG and others. 
  • DilOS have own ips2deb tool for build DEB packages based on IPS manifest. It is one tool is using for userland and illumos builds. As I know illumian have another tool - perhaps debmaker.
