    Thatnks for many replies.

    Special Thanks for Rich Teer, Colin Bigam, Olaf Bohlen...,

    For install a Solaris 10, minimum hardware requirements UltraSPARC II CPU and Ultra 2 system.
    Because solaris 10 system is only 64bit system, hardware system must 64bit system.
    32bit SPARC system not used solaris 10 OS.

    Thanks & Regards,
    PSI.
