I have not tried installing this version yet but does anybody know if this will work on a SUN Enterprise 450 server? i have one sitting at home and I love Ubuntu and would like to install it on that server. thanks.

I could be mistaken but last time I checked the internal FC-AL drives weren't compatible.

I've been running Ubuntu on an e450 for months now, it's my router, my webserver, my mailserver, my dns server, my transparent squid proxy, my samba primary domain controller.. everything, EXCEPT asterisk, works perfectly, however it's noisy unless you recompile the kernel with the envctrl patch which switches off half of the fans.

Hello, I actually have an old Sun Ultra E450 sitting in my livingroom with nothing todo, I am very interested in installing ubuntu dapper server on it and consolidate some of the machines I have running my network into one. I actually got it to load the cd and start installing one time but it shutdown due to a circuit overload when the breaker flipped after that I have not been able to get it to start installation due to an Illegal Instruction since then :( :confused: I have successfully installed the same version on a Sun Ultra 5, Unfortunatly it does not install on my Ultra 10s, or my Ultra 60 ( I am guessing due to the Creator 3D, from what I have read in previous post)... Though the E450 does not have the Creator 3D Video card... Any help is appreciated.
