Latest News

13 November, 2006 : System time/date handling finished. +
12 November, 2006 : The very first install ISO and live CD can be downloaded from here: 7.0-20061112-SNAP-sun4v-disc1.iso.bz2.

You will notice a number of acd0 timeouts during boot. These will be fixed in a later version. For now, just be patient.

To use the live CD, use the 'Fixit' menu item. Note that this is a snapshot, so there will be a warning about the label not matching 7.0-CURRENT.

Hardware List

A summary of supported systems follows. SMP is supported on all supported systems.

What Needs To Be Done

Load balance interrupts between CPUs.
Add support for the serial port.
System date and time. Use ntpdate in the mean time.
