I have fantastic news...

OpenBSD/sparc64 (sparcrat.my.domain) (console)
...
You have mail.
# ls
.Xdefaults .cshrc     .klogin    .login     .profile


It works!!!! It really works! I'm so happy :D

No other Unix distribution that I know of (I've tested over 9) actually works
on this box!!!

Now all I need to do is work out how to slow down the fans (the fans slow down
after boot in Solaris 10).

Thanks so much guys! Let me know if I can help with anything else relating to
this machine.


Aaron

How old is that snapshot?  We had some changes in the SCSI subsystem
recently, so this may already be fixed in a more recent snapshots.
