I haven't heard of this working. I know we support UltraSPARC III though. As for which version of Debian to install, don't even attempt potato. 2.2.x kernels wont boot this UltraSPARC. -- Debian - http://www.debian.org/ Linux 1394 - http://linux1394.sourceforge.net/ Subversion - http://subversion.tigris.org/ Deqo - http://www.deqo.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
