Is a Sparc4 system with 32 megs of ram and a 500 meg scsi drive even worth
loading a Linux distro on? I was thinking of using it as a firewall. But
here's what I don't recall - the Sparc4 had two ethernet ports - one DIX/AUI
and one RJ-45. Can I use both ports at the same time is it only one or the
other in use at one time?
Assuming that I can use both ethernet ports can I load Mandrake 9.0 with only
what is required to support routing and iptables and perhaps one or two other
goodies? Given the vintage of the hardware is this totally pointless?
