Folks, I work for Sun Microsystems in MPK12. I have an Ultra45 in my office. I just upgraded the firmware. How difficult would it be for me to use wanboot to install OpenSolaris from my office? Which Opensolaris install server would I use? How would I set up the wanboot on my Ultra45? Any suggestions? It would be great to run the latest Opensolaris on my office system. I might find some really interesting bugs.
