Question - If I want to develop for my hypersparc, what distribution would you recommend as a testing enviroment? I currently have setup an Ultra5 running Aurora 1.0 (very nicely too) connected via serial to the SS20 and they are both on the same subnet. -netboot the sun from the ultra5. -cross compile on the Ultra5 and then netboot on the SS20 and serial debug it I have SPARC Architecture Assembly language programming and C, my experiences programming a SBC Sparc system, the SPARC risk users guide, ROSS edition and a 3 processor 200MHz HyperSPARC. I was tempted to attempt to fix 2.2.25 (which is broken on the SMP hypersparc I believe) and then proceed with attempting to have a go at 2.4.x and get that working. Any thoughts on this plan? Any advice on a kernel test package you can use to discover if what you have done is stable?
