serial ports on Sparc 2.
Can anyone tell me the top speed of the serial ports on a Sparc 2? The manual specifies the functions of the pins and how to set jumpers for RS-232 or RS-4?? operation but does not mention speeds. None of the lists of specs. on the Web that I have found mention the speed either. Thanks, Peter E. http://carnot.pathology.ubc.ca/peter.html

You can share the swap space between the two OSs however you will need to have mkswap in your startup scripts under Linux because linux looks for magic numbers when doing swapon, and solaris overwrites them. You don't have to make any changes to solaris. -Tom
Sharing swap with Solaris?
Hi, I'm the happy owner of a Sun Ultra 5, dual-booting (boot disk:a and disk:b) Solaris 9 and Debian 3.0. Some fdisk output: Disk /dev/hda (Sun disk label): 16 heads, 63 sectors, 39702 cylinders Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 bytes Device FlagStart EndBlocks Id System /dev/hda1 17354 27512 51196322 SunOS root /dev/hda2 u 0 10415246643 SunOS swap /dev/hda3 0 39702 200098085 Whole disk /dev/hda4 1041 17354 8221752 83 Linux native /dev/hda8 27512 39702 61437608 SunOS home This machine has 128 MB RAM, and currently no swap under Linux. Could I just put /dev/hda2 as swap in my Debian /etc/fstab and swapon without getting Solaris problems? (I referenced the Linux+Solaris HOWTO, but it seems horrendously outdated...)
