Strictly speaking, it is the UltraSPARC-I CPU that is no longer supported (although persoanlly I'd like to start a project to ressurect such support in OpenSOlaris), i.e., those CPUs that are < 200MHz in speed. That means that all Ultra 1s and 200 MHz Ultra 2s are no longer supported. Ultra 2s with a clock speed of 250 MHz or more (i.e., those that use the UltraSPARC-II CPUs) are still supported. > Or a system which does not cost lots of money (Ultra 5 from EBay+new > card disk = ~~300Euro :-( ). I guess it depends on perspective, but I'd not call 300 Euro "lots". > What is that? Please read the docs on the OpenSolaris.org web site. They explain all these sorst of terms.

It will "probably" work. -- Rich Teer, SCNA, SCSA, OpenSolaris CAB member President, Rite Online Inc.
