Installing Solaris10(sparc) on a V245 using a Wyse terminal

Hi,

Might be a bit of a strange request, but I hope someone's had this
experience before.

I recently took delivery of a SunV245 system, and while having experience
with Solaris 2.6 and Solaris 8 installs,
I thought I'd give Solaris10 an install on the V245 server - to see what's
new. (Plus I'd like to give some training to one of our new guys who's not
familiar with solaris.)

The only terminal we have is a Wyse WY-120 dumb-terminal, which I've used
for ages on UE3000's and E250's with little issue, but when trying to
install Solaris 10, I'm selecting VT100 as the terminal type which has
normally done me well in the past, but on the V245/Sol10 the character
placement is a bit all over the place.

Could anyone suggest what terminal type to use instead ?

Many thanks in advance.
