I think you may be in trouble. =20

Intel and SPARC architectures are significantly different - CISC vs
RISC, little endian vs big-endian - and I doubt that you could make
either run code compiled for the other platform.=20

I suppose it's possible to make Solaris binaries work on Linux on a
SPARC, but I have never tried that.=20

Hope you find a solution. :)

Regards,
Tom

Subject: running sparc solaries binaries on Linux on intel


Hi,

I need to run some prorietery binaries in Linux on Intel that are as of
now running on Solaris on Sparc. Is there a HOWTO somewhere that I could
follow the setup or if someone has the knowledge please let me know.=20

Thanks and Regards,
