Aurora SPARC Linux release 2.98 (Victoria) Kernel 2.6.20-1.2986.al3.3 on an sparc64 Aurora login: root Password: [root@Aurora ~]# I can confirm the 2.98 install works on a T1 105 with one disk installed. All be it I had to do an FTP install as it wouldn't work from the DVD but I suspect that may be a problem with the DVD build and if I'd done it from multiple CD's it would have worked. So my Linux experience is about to begin, I have a few friends who use Linux so I will pester them as much as I can and only bother list members when its necessary. I've updated the Wiki and will try the install on my T1 100 later this week, maybe tomorrow.
