Keith,
I have installed RedHat v6.1 on both an SS20 and an Ultra 2, the Ultra
being dual CPU. Both ran fine although the Ultra's disk has since died.
No problems encountered though I wasn't really asking much of either.
Cheers
Julian

Hey all,
I was just wondering if any of you guys have had any experience in using
old sun and HP boxes with Linux. I'm thinking of picking up one to act
as a test box to play about with but ultimately maybe using them as
samba servers etc?
Thanks,
Keith.
