I'm surprised you found a 32-bit system even capable of using 1TB drives, lots of older disk controller have issues with greater than 1TB even, setting aside 32-bit kernel limitations. If its a matter of upgrading, why not just pick up a 64-bit CPU? They can be had for around $60 US dollars (assuming you use AMD, a dual core 64-bit X2 is in that range easily) -- Brent Jones br...@servuhome.net _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
