OpenBoot Simulator

Hi,

I would like to know if it's possible find a openboot simulator for solaris to can practice some exercices

Thanks a lot and sorry for my english!

Use VirtualBox from Sun. :cool:

that won't give you OBP access...?! i don't know if such a tool exists never heard about that. but maybe the documentation at http://docs.sun.com can help yo out.

you can pick up a legit sun box these days off ebay for ... $100 or so.

Sorry, Where do you have seen these offers??

Thanks and sorry for my english!

So.. are we looking for OpenSPARC T1 ?:confused:

Well, I try to find a low-priced server to can practice with the tecnology openboot to can certificate

An Ultra 10 workstation will be ideal for that (practise purposes):smiley:

In these server could I install solaris 10!?
Where could I buy these sever (used)?

Thanks!!

Yes, why not?
Solaris 10 Sun Hardware Platform Guide

You can get used machines from SUN partners or dealers, they might have old decommed machines which might be of help to you. its cheaper .. of course you must test it to be stable.. :cool:

qemu-sparc emulator uses OpenBios QEMU

I have no experience on it though so I don't know how close it is from Sun OpenBoot implementation.

jesus... i'm thinking about all those systems we just scrapped. we had a "sun graveyard" hahaha.
