I have some experience with the Linux, *BSDs, AIX, and DG/UX, but I want
to get more familiar with Solaris (but NOT Solaris on x86 :). I have an
IPX with 48MB that I was playing with OpenBSD on, but have kicked around
the idea of Solaris 2.7. I have the media, but no cd drive. Can
Solaris net-boot/install from a Linux system or OpenBSD? I've done it
with NetBSD, but Solaris?
Now I know Solaris won't run well on this system, but I am looking for a
machine to do DNS serving for my LAN and maybe an IMAP server. Nothing
strenuous. Also, I won't be running X11 as I am only hooked up via a
serial console and have no need for remote X on this box. This is only
a learning exercise. So, is it possible?
Thanks,
Bill
