[OmniOS-discuss] Plex on LX zone howto

[Günther Alka]

hello Gary

There are more users interested in a tested Plex Howto or a ready to use VM.
For OmniOS + napp-it free I have already added a menu for an easy 
download + setup of SmartOS LX zones, see 
http://www.napp-it.org/doc/downloads/zones.pdf

I have started a thread at 
https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/omnios-now-includes-lx-support-from-joyent-smartos.11577/ 
with a link to a preconfigured Plex zone for SmartOS at 
http://lightsandshapes.com/plex-on-smartos.html

It would be nice if someone who uses and wants Plex would add some 
experiences and hints as I do not use Plex myself.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to get the right sequence of steps to create the LX zone and linux kernel in preparation for installing Plex.  I'm not even sure which Linux kernel would be the least problematic (I chose debian 8).
