[SPARCbook] SparcLE and Solaris 10

[Alicia Ladd]

Hi Stephen,

Do you know what the problem would be for changing out a mother board on an
ultrabook IIi? for some reason when i take a u20 and upgrade the motherboard
to make it compatible with a u40 it will not light the screen i tried a new
video  card but that didn't work either.  Thanks and let me know i fthis is
a quick fix or if you know nothing about it.

Alicia

Unfortunately Itronix (Tadpole/General Dynamics)
really does not seem inclined to maintain the
operating system of their laptops.  The iso image you
have has all of the Tadpole specific drivers etc, and
in the case of the sparcle is definitely needed so
that the video and ps2 style keybaord get set up
appropriately.

I tried a couple of times to strip out the Tadpole
pieces of the 03/05 iso, but never spent the time
necessary to set up all the softlinks and build a new
iso of a later version of Sol10.

Send me a physical address off list and I will send
you a cd set of 03/05.

regards
steve
