Anyone got a recent copy of Sol 10 stable +intro
by Anthony Cull 18 Jan '08

18 Jan '08

Hi wlug Im Anthony, I have a sparc netra X1 and would like to upgrade it to the latest stable release of Solaris 10... Yes I know linux works on sparc.. but hate to say this but the options are less than good. I might be prompted to join wlug and contribute my experience with *nixes over the last 5 years. I am moving from Levin to Te Aroha and thought contributing my knowledge to a local community would help.
