I wanted to try Linux on it, years ago I was able to install linux on a Ultra 1, from the network using a TFTP server and the process was fun. I learned a lot.</p> <p>Recently I had read about T2sde, a distribution that supports a lot of architectures, including SPARC. I decided to give it a try. There a lot of packages available, and the process sounds easy, and the best the have one of the most recent versions of the Linux kernel. Amazing!</p>
