What type of system? If it's a sparc32 (sun4m, sun4c, ...), then stick with 2.2.x, because 2.4.x just wont run well right now. If you're talking about an UltraSPARC, I say go for the latest 2.4.x (2.4.7 right now), as it is much more stable, especially on high end systems. HOWEVER, you will need to upgrade some packages on potato to work with 2.4.x. One main thing is modutils (you can recompile the package if you want, and I can give you quick instructions for rebuilding the package on potato). There may be others.
