[rescue] BOOTING SOLARIS 10 on a ULTRA 2/200

[Brian Howe]

I would like to know as well... I've tested 10 on machines in my lab
at work and it rocks. I'd like to have it at home too, however since
I've only got an Ultra 1, there's really no way that's happening any
time soon.

While were at it, anyone got a spare Ultra2 or 5 taking up space that
they want to donate? :)
