I've played around a little with Linux at work and decided it might be nice to have
it at home.  I'm having a little problem with installation of Red Hat 6.2... I
downloaded the ISO image and burned it to CD, howerver, my machine won't boot from
it.  I've tried it twice to no avail. (a friend is downloading Caldera for me tonight
so I'll see how it goes)  My question is, does anyone have a bootable Linux CD
(doesn't have to be RedHat, I'll take Caldera or UltraLinux) that they know is
bootable and that you could burn a copy of? (I will, of course, supply the CD's)
Here's the catch....  My home machine is a Sparcstation 5.. so I'm really looking for
someone who has a little knowlage and a bootable SPARC CD.

Before you ask... yes, I did download and burn the SPARC ISO Image.

Like I said, my machine is a Sparcstation 5 with PROM 2.15, 32MB of RAM and a TurboGX
Frame Buffer.  Currently I have SunOS 5 version 4.0 which I want to replace.

If you have any ideas or tips/tricks/bootable CD/config ideas please let me know.

Thanks,

Aaron
