Solaris 10 was a total revelation back in the day. Kids these days will never witness something like that.
Cynicism has killed most of genuine curiosity.
๏ฝข Solaris 2.1 for x86, also known as SunOS 5.1, was Sunโs first entry into the PC market (technically it was SunSoft, a subsidiary of Sun Microsystems, who released Solaris). However, it wasnโt Sunโs first x86 operating system. In the late 1980s, Sun sold 386i workstations based on Intel 386 processors. The 386i workstations were not PC compatible and ran SunOS 4.0, a BSD UNIX derivative with many custom Sun enhancements ๏ฝฃ

Well my OTHER #sun ultra 10 just died. I now have two machines that will power on, but the power LED stays off, and no display ever comes.
Before that started to happen it complained about the IDPROM contents being wrong, so I followed a guide to re-create the contents and allow my ultra 10 to boot. The "power led won't come on" problem started then.
Does anyone know how to get this unstuck? I need at least one to work for my #sunpci #DOScember video!

I don't know what possessed me to try OpenSolaris again, but here I am, running 2009.06 in a VM!
Only thing is, the repos for software for this release have long been turned off, and the compiler tools are not included on the CD by default. If I can get the compiler tools, I can at least add pkgsrc to get software that way, but also my Solaris skills are not as sharp as they were.
Does anyone know if another repo exists for software for Solaris? And also a source for the compilers.
