@adi:are you sure it will run smooth on 512MB RAM?

^^^ It should run fine.

For a home user ZFS etc. aren't of much use.

Yup..
I have 256+512 MB RAM
Earlier i had just 256 MB and i failed to get both of them work...but recently i upgraded
Installation took a hell lot of time
I hate these kind of Live CD/DVD + install Distro's
they should have one feature...Ubuntu is too not an exception

 

[mehulved]

I have tried both solaris and open solaris but i am not impressed..
Everything is nearly same as linux(i am not an expert) ..
What's so special in it for home users...?

Nothing if you don't want to peek under the hood. Solaris has been a server OS, though Sun is trying to change that but it still hasn't been able to gather enough momentum to do so successfully.
