IIRC the maximum disk size with these things is 8GB. It certainly worked
for me with a 6GB Toshiba but others with bigger disks reported
problems.

Ebay or Tadpole. Solaris 2.6 HW 5/98 will be a lot easier / less
expensive to acquire though. 5/98 comes with full SPARCbook support,
other releases work but will need drivers from Tadpole to use power
management, graphics and so on.

You may want to consider Linux or NetBSD too, at least if you plan to
use any PCMCIA hardware that's not ATA ( like wireless networking ). I
finally got around to add full PCMCIA support, audio ( output only so
far but at least something ), CPU power saving and so on for NetBSD, an
accelerated driver for XFree86 is almost there too.

have fun
Michael
