U60 is a great box to run Debian! I assume that you're talking about main RAM, not the tiny amount of nonvolatile memory used to store system configuration. The needed RAM modules are specific to only a few Sun models. One reference for the RAM part numbers for Ultra 60's is: http://www.memoryx.net/ultra60.html > What is the video connector : sub -D 15 or 13w3 ? An Ultra 60 has two "UPA" type slots for video cards. Every UPA type video card I've seen has a 13W3 connector. The UPA cards I have in U60's are called "Creator" and "Elite". It should be possible to use certain Sun PCI video cards in Ultra 60's, and the Sun PCI video card I have (from an Ultra 5; not tried in U60) has HD15. > where could I find the latest Debian ETCH for sparc ? My last install a couple of weeks ago on an Ultra 5 used a "businesscard" CD image from: http://www.debian.org/releases/etch/debian-installer/ "businesscard" requires that you have a fast internet connection since most of the required Debian packages are downloaded individually. "netinst" images have more packages inside the .iso image and need to use the internet less. -- enjoy! SP -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
