Hi Bede,

According to the HCL, your HP is certified for Solaris 10, but it says nothing about OpenSolaris:

   * http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/data/systems/details/33095.html
   * http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/data/systems/details/33096.html

But as a certified Solaris 10 machine, I would like to think OpenSolaris would also work.

Does the machine have any OS on it today? If so, you could try running the Device Detection Tool <http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/hcts/device_detect.jsp> to see what it reports. If all the devices are reported to work, a support contract should cover this. Here's the information on pricing: http://www.sun.com/service/opensolaris/.

Regards,
Brian

Just a quick semi related question on this but do the Sun/OpenSolaris support 
contracts cover this kind of thing? Because at this point I can't even get 
OpenSolaris installed so I'm wondering if it would be something worth buying?

Thanks for the help

Bede
