I want to install the sparc port of NetBSD on a Sun IPX to
experiment.  I see in the installation directions for 1.0, that
you should be running SunOS to install this.  Does Solaris 2.4
count?  I realize that Solaris 2.4 is called SunOS 5.4, but I
didn't see any verion numbers in the installation directions.
Will the installation of the sparc port change when 1.1
comes out?
