`<span style='font-family:Verdana'><span style='font-size:12px'>Hi All,<br />
<br />
Thanks for all the answers. We got some very valid suggestions as the one below from you Jay, but I must say I'm not very comfortable (not technically) with it. I believe, as per Jim Klimov and Ken Mays replies, we should have a proper solution on OmniOS.<br />
<br />
Please, don't understand me wrong and I know very well that is easier to say than do, but maybe if there's somebody in the community willing to port fuse and ntfs-3g to OmniOS (if that would be the best solution, I don't know...) and add to the official repo, I'm sure it would be a great addition and can be added to the list of supported features. <br />
<br />
I think that OmniOS is an outstanding OS and rock solid, as all the others illumos/OpenSolaris based ones!!! I really hope that the repos will be more rich in time, even though I like the minimalistic approach for now/<br />
<br />
I might try to copy all the data I have from a laptop running Linux and upload to my server via NFS, but I don't consider this thread closed and I would like to hear more about in case somebody else want to collaborate with this issue.<br />
<br />
Thanks a mill and Happy 2013!!!<br />
<br />
Cheers,<br />
Fabio<br />

Hi Fabio,
I'd suggest the easiest (and I use the term loosely) way to do this
would be to bring up a Linux VM and, assuming it's supported, pass
the raw USB device through to it. You can then mount your zpool via
NFS from the global zone.
I'm using SmartOS, and vmadm(1m) seems to imply that the -usb and
-usbdevice are supported through qemu_opts. I'm not sure what value
you would use for -usbdevice as it's normally host:VendorID:ProductID,
and normally you can find these from /sbin/lsusb on Linux - not sure
of the equivalent in Solaris land.
Hope that helps.
Best Regards,
Jay Fenton
