Re: [indiana-discuss] Feedback requested! Which SPARC platforms to target first...

Sat, 03 Jan 2009 09:00:08 -0800 

I own a Sun Blade 1000, Sun Blade 2000, Sun Ultra 30, and a Sun Enterprise 450 
server.   I am looking to buy a Sun Blade 2500 in the near term.   I have been 
desperately waiting for a version of Opensolaris that will run on these 
platforms.   I use the Sun4u (Sun Blade 1000/2000) more than the the ultra 30.  
 I would definitely need a desktop environment as I use these machines as 
workstations.    My preference is for the sparc port to behave exactly like the 
x86/x64 distro of opensolaris.  I do not need the live cd a regular install 
method like what is available with linux is fine.  But I do need the full 
complement of software,  X server (preferrably hardware accelerated), gcc, and 
gnu utils.  I also want to be able to use the Sun Studio Express compilers on 
this platform.
