I have had good luck with the text installer on ultra 5's (ultra2i) with 256
ram in them. I have done a lot of installs this way.
Upgrading in text mode is also a good option when there isn't as much ram too,
but this also needs 256 ram.
It's not too hard to up ram some, but from a cd/dvd boot

Dear all,
As a result of the reorganization of the user group community, CHOSUG is now
hosted as an OpenSolaris project which gives us both more visibility and
flexibility for the content.
The main page is now at: http://opensolaris.org/os/project/chosug/

after 150 PCs and we won't be touching it with a barge pole.

Would the double testing impair the quality of build 72? I'd figu
Casper and William:
There is also a bug in snv_70 to prevent install on x86 with 512 MB of
memory. It is fixed in snv_70a and install will work with 512 MB if you
use Solaris Express and you must use the text option to install.

Jumpstart will still work. (And there's quite a bit of difference between
x86 (needs at least 200MB more) and SPARC.

Why would you even care about the warranty?
Let's say you're running a mission critical environment. If you are, then you
