SUMMARY: Fujitsu Primepower 250 / Solaris 10 / jumpstart

From: Andrew Hall (halla3@corp.earthlink.net)

Here is what I have learned.

Solaris 10: Is not supported and won't be until late January of next year:

Solaris 9: Is supported and can be installed w/ a stock Sol 9 0404.
The Fujitsu specific cluster patch must be installed after jumpstarting.

Solaris 8: Is supported but one must get a specific copy of Sol 8 from
Fujitsu released specifically for Fujitsu hardware. The Fujitsu
specific cluster patch must be installed after jumpstarting.

FYI,

Drew
