You need Sun disk mount kits, which are not sold separately. Moreover, they were selling Intel-based Fire V65x servers with completely different disk mounts, not found in any traditional Sun server. Also the embedded RAID controller did not have any Linux support at all... Sun produces decent hardware, and I like it very much. Just don't assume there are Intel servers available from Sun :) _______________________________________________ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
