Everything there should work just fine.
You do not tell the graphic nor the network cards.

Is it a laptop ? if yes, you'd rather tell us the model.

In any cases, the simplest way to figure out if a machine will work with Solaris is to pick a live CD Open Solaris based distro, and ask the vendor to try booting it on a demo machine.

yes,it's a laptop.MODEL:Acer TM4021 WLMI. you can get more information about it in


open solarsi based distro! i have no any idia what is distro or based distro.

the operating system on this computer is Linux. Maybe it gives you any idia.

hi,

i'm waiting for a clear replay. is this computer is okey for solaris based on hardware.

tnks,

As nobody reported yet it works, there is a slight risk it doesn't.

By the way, I do not found it on the Acer site, are you sure you didn't mistype the model ?

OpenSolaris live distributions are Schillix, Belenix and Nexenta.

A live distribution is one you can use from the CD, without the need of installation on the disk.

thanks for sites you have sent.

i dind't want give sites address because maybe some members think about it like an advertise.
