I can send you copies of Aurora Linux if you like. I downloaded them quite a while back for a project that did not push through. email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] of you are interested.
much as the offer is very much appreciated, my motives for running linux on sparcs is really for parallel computing/cluster computing. what i'm exactly trying to do is setup a 4 node beowulf cluster consisting of 4 ultrasprac 5's in UPLB, and at a later date a heterogenous beowulf cluster of IBM PC clones and SPARCs in the mix.
i've looked around the net, and i think i would just use Debian (ROCKS!! hehehe... ;) ) on the UltraSPARCs.
and besides, i would also be coming up with a Debian (ROCKS!! ;) ) based live CD distro for UP(LB). something like knoppix and knoppix with mosix in it, but my intention is to come up with a beowulf cluster where there would be a master and slaves. details if wanted are available upon request. ;)
however, it's not officially UP's distro (yet, because i haven't talked to the higer ups regarding funding and continuation of the project)-- although i would love to donate the distro when i'm done getting it up.
i've decided to call it Oblation Linux, and i would love to get in touch with people from UP regarding this effort. :)
