[Aurora-sparc-devel] mostly successful install 2.98 on an AXi!

I was so suprised that I actually got Aurora 2.98 installed on a Sun
computer!!! it
is a little sketchy-- the HAL daemon doesn't load and the video is a bit
shaky, it loaded..

the question now is: what do I have to do to load Aurora on a U80? the
install dies, saying
something about not enough memory.... this is on a machine that is
maxed... 4- 450mhz and 4 gigs
of ram... do I have to strip 3 processors and 3 gigs of memory to install
it?

with Sun charging a king's ransom for a basic subscription for updates
($240 per year per "socket")
it looks like I'll be "recycling" my Sun equipment and go back to
peecees... 

I love Fedora, too bad the sparc version doesn't work for me...

sorry for the rant.... once or twice a year...
