I recently asked:

> Model 1101. The article seemed to state that Solaris 1.1 was supported on

This question was prompted by the following table in the sunflash message:

_____________________________________________________________________________
| | | Solaris Release(s) |
| System | Type of License | included with System|
|______________________________|______________________|_____________________|
| | | |
| SPARCserver 10 Model 30 | | |
| Model 41 | | Solaris 1.1 and |
| Model 51 | Uniprocessor | an upgrade to |
| | Workgroup Server | the most current |
| | | Solaris 2.x release |
| SPARCserver 690MP Model 41 | | |
| | | |
| SPARCserver 1000 Model 1101 | | |
|______________________________|______________________|_____________________|

I received six replies and none of them thought that Solaris 1.1 (SunOS 4.1.3)
would run on any model of SS1000. They ranged from "I doubt it" to "no way".
