Maximum RAM in a Sparc Classic is 96MB regular and 128MB inofficially. The latter can be achieved by using two 32MB SIMMs in the first two sockets. Cool - much more then originally thought. Thnx. Btw, any sites you could point me at that would sell RAM for such an old machine? Thnx again. Eb

If it is still true and Sparc Linux on my machine would be noticably slower then *BSD, no biggie. This is just my play box - my main box

I had the same problem on a Sparc 2--aparently it is specific to something on the Sparc 2. I was able to install RedHat 6.0 on the same machine. I haven't tried the 6.2 beta -- you might want to try it (assuming here is a Sparc version, I haven't checked). I finally gave up and installed OpenBSD
