    Solaris 2.6 is the last version that runs on micro channel machines.
    Unfortunately, the system crashes if more than 64 MB of RAM is
    installed. A workaround for this may be found in the source code,
    almost certainly in this directory:
    Solaris_2.6/os_net/src_ws/usr/src/psm/stand/boot/i386/common

    Solaris also runs on hardware for which there is currently no Linux
    driver, such as the Mylex DAC960 MCA and IBM Passplay and Cheetah. The
    source code can be found here:
    Solaris_2.6/ps/usr/src/uts/i86pc/io/dktp/hba/mlx/
    and here:
    Solaris_2.6/ps/usr/src/uts/i86pc/sys/dktp/mlx/

    On 29 August, 2002, Leonard Zubkoff died in a helicopter crash in Misty
    Fjords National Monument Wilderness near Ketchikan, Alaska. Leonard was
    a long-time Linux kernel developer, and was the former CTO of VA Linux
    Systems (now known as VA Software). A brief page about Leonard has been
    posted, as that we remember not just the software he developed, but also
    the man that he was.
