Once again I am back with the same question that still hasn't found a satisfactory answer. I have sparc and no x86 based machine to spare to install OpenSolaris on it to boot/install on sparc. I tried other methods to install OpenSolaris following guidance I found on various blogs, but with unsatisfactory results. I got to a point where I can boot an installation, but there is no driver for my Expert 3D Lite FB :-(
I searched for "roadmap" and "sparc" and "ultrasparc" on opensolaris.com without getting any meaningful (to my subject) results. I was wondering if anybody knows when an OpenSolaris installation DVD will be available for Sparc, with full support for Sun hardware and a package update manager like pkg that will help maintaining the installation up to date without need to re-install or luupgrade every few weeks (as I had to do so far with SXCE) -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
