Hi!
It's the first time I write here...

I "rescued" a Sparc Server 1000E, with 8 CPUs.

I repaired the PSU (two mosfets, a BJT, two diodes and other minor
stuff...) and now it's alive.

I found, on board, a misconfigured Linux installation, not a production
one.
So I'm planning to start from ground reinstalling SunOS/Solaris.
The 1000E should have 256MB of ram.

Is Solaris 8 the last version to support the 1000E (sun4d) architecture?

Thanks!
