[ug-bosug] Linux+Solaris env on Sparc system ?

[Madhan Kumar Balasubramanian]

Shiv,

It appears to me that openvz is only for T1 processors.     It may not 
support earlier platforms. 

I don't think there exists a easy to use/free solution for running linux 
on older sparc h/w.

Best Regards,
Madhan Kumar
