>>Sun4's run out-of-the-box. The FAQ will direct you to two sources of

careful: only certain sparc models are supported, and
the list doesn't include the VME-based Sun4 servers.

i've successfully used SLC, ELC and SS1 out-of-the-box.
others are listed, too (SS2, SS1+, IPC, uniprocessor SS10), but i haven't tried them.

the LX/Classic ones aren't supported, because they are
different again, but if you've got an LX or Classic, and the source, i can
give you my changes to get our LX/Classic models
going on the old academic release.  i didn't update the changes
for the current (book+cd) release.
