I don't know of any functional SPARC distribution beyond bootstrapping it yourself from opensolaris b134 and the source (which is non-trivial and time consuming). Hopefully someone who has the amount of time will, eventually, appear, but thus far it's seemed unilkely (people tend to get a long way there, but then realize they've been doing nothing else for a month, and they need to do other things...) -- Rich ------------------------------------------- illumos-discuss Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/182180/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/182180/21175430-2e6923be Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21175430&id_secret=21175430-6a77cda4 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
