RE: Sunpci under Suse-SparcLinux 7.3

You fail to understand...that the SunPCi product is actually a "PC on a
card"...ie its a AMD 486/133 processor and memory on a board to allow
running of Windows applications within Solaris.

OK I stand corrected. This could easily be a re-badged product, if the
original manufacture could be discovered, than its possible that some one
has got Linux running on it or got it to interoperate on a Linux based PC.

Actually, what he meant was the "SunPCi" family of cards.  See:

That'll explain all.
