*NICE* haul!
Moral question : I have Solaris 2.5, Solaris 8 and
Ubuntu Linux. The
Ubuntu complains about not enough memory (there's only 64 megs in
there). But I'm more of a Linux guy than a Solaris guy...
With only 64MB Solaris 8 is out. Personally I'd recommend OpenBSD,
as 64MB should be surprisingly roomy, and quite nice on an Ultra 1.
I've run it in as little as 48MB on an Alpha.
So... tips, tricks, etc? And who has SDIMMs for me? Or
for that
matter SGI memory sticks, they look pretty weird...
The Indigo uses 72-pin parity SIMM's, the O2 uses proprietary RAM,
not sure about the Indy.
For the problems with the O2, make sure everything is seated
properly. I really like O2's.
