Default jumpstarting x86

(Looks my newsserver does post messages - another try after fixing that)

My boss is thinking about purchasing an x86 cluster, arghhh.
At least I can hope to persuade him of running Solaris instead of Linux.

My question is: Is it possible to jumpstart Solaris on Sun's x86 machines
just like I'm able to do for Sparc?

Hey Uwe,

yes it is possible. Also you can jumpstart a Linux-Server from a SUN-Sparc.
Look at the documentation for the V60/65. If you need more help, contact me
by PM.

Bye
