[rescue] Cobalt Qube 3 Solaris?

[Alexander Jacocks]

Folks,

Has anyone attempted to run Solaris x86 on a Cobalt Qube? I have one that
is a rather cool looking device, but as a web server it is of course
unusable, due to (many, severe!) security issues.

I was thinking of trying to pay tribute to the combination of Sun and
Cobalt by running Solaris x86. To do that, I'd need to install a video card
in the PCI slot, which I know would only be visible after boot, but I
suspect that's not a big deal. The odd boot mechanism would be more the
issue.

Has anyone experimented with alternative OSes on the Qube 3 and its RaQ
cousins?
