We have some Solaris 2.0 Machines here and the biggest problem with them
is keeping then up and running. One has rebooted 5 times in 2 days.

Grass4.1 does not run under Solaris2.0 (yes I know nobody out there has
grass4.1).

The Sparc10 need SunOS 4.1.2 or greater, (which is also called Solaris 1.0.1)

The SPARCstation LX (& CLASSIC) run Solaris 2.1 (not 2.0, thank goodness).

As soon as I get a copy of Solaris 2.1 I plan on taking it on, (I have
a death wish :)
