I need to upgrade a Sparcstation-10 from Solaris 2.5.1 to 8.
PROM version is 2.12, and according the FAQ (5.60) I see that with this
older PROM I'm limited to a 1GB root partition.
My question is, if I upgrade the PROM will I still be limited
to, say, 2GB for root partition? I would like to us a 4GB system
disk. I've checked the archives.
Any other gotchas anyone can share with me for this upgrade?
Currently using a GX frame-buffer, which is supported under
Solaris 8 (I've been bitten by that before...oh gee we don't
support that fb anymore).
Thanks, summary to follow.
