If you would still be using a SPARC as primary platform (i.e. sb2k), then you all could easily benefit from SunPCiIIIpro, which offers you a usable solution (speed). You can even boot MartUX_x86 inside it (with a special grub floppy that I never uploaded so far / then netboot SPARC's local dvd-rom [special SunPCi-miniroot on MartUX DVD]). %m
