Just consider to replace the HD with a bigger one. I'm sure Solaris 7 is a bit to hangry with hw resources to run it usefully. I run Linux on the SS2. I think, after some testings, you need at least a SPARC Classic ar better a SS5. It's possible to find some for less than 600USD w/o 17" color monitor. regards Andre MARTANO Advanced Computing - Italy
