The SPARCstation has a SPARC processor and cannot run the LEAF binaries. You could compile all binaries and the kernel for SPARC and replace those in the LEAF package to form a LEAF SPARC. If you didn't know that SPARC doesn't run the same executables, you're probably not in a position where compiling everything for a different platform is something you do every day. You might want to try out Linux for SPARC to play around a bit, see http://www.ultralinux.org/ Regards Alex BTW: Debian Woody supports SPARC. You could take those binaries and put them into LEAF packages. Be prepared to spend some time and learn a lot ;-) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The SF.net Donation Program.
