SubjectRe: Linux on a SparcServer 4/490?

Hello Jussi, Might just try a RH6.0 boot CD & see .
iirc they arre supported with the caveat that the vme
bus is not supported (yet ?) . Another way to try it
would be to net boot(tftp) the 4/490 from another system
a linux-x86 for example . www.redhat.com has much info
on this process . Hth, JimL
