Thanks for the replies. For now I'm going to try it with Solaris 10 for a few reasons:
1.- I try to get the most of its 6 SCSI discs, and the documentation I found for Solaris (http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-4520) was much better than similiar one for Linux, including optimizations for various scenarios (write intensive vs read intensive, small vs large reads,...). 2.- I'm also interested in checking DTrace (http://users.tpg.com.au/adsln4yb/dtrace.html), that has got really good press in the media. 3.- Solaris Containers (similar to Xen, but again better documented than Xen). Anyway it's true that for a "Linuxer" like me Solaris is hard and even ugly (it took me one full day to setup IPs&DNSs). If I success I will post a resume for reference. --- Lennart Regebro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> escribió: > On 10/20/05, Nick Davis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'm not sure how difficult it is to install Linux > on this h/w but if you > > can, this will make life easier for you in many > ways in addition to > > being easier to host Plone/Zope > > Debian is supposed to run fine.
