Default How much memory installed? Other misc... Sparc 5

I have a Sparc 5 box here and I was wondering if there was any way to tell
how much memory the machine was detecting.

Also, any links to basic diagonstics for a Sun Sparc 5 would be appreciated!

My Sparc 5 is an 85Mhz unit with 256meg of memory (I think), two 2gig SCSI
drives internally, slim Sun internal CDRom and Turbo XGX framebuffer card.

Everything seems to work, but being new to this I can't even get an OS
installed with confidence.

Any suggestions as to what OS to run? The box won't be dedicated to much,
but I'd like to try configuring it as a workstation and/or web server.

Thanks!
