i was given a couple sparc 10's and a sparc 5 but no password and no cd
drive so getting into the machine is impossible.
anyone have a spare drive to sell/barter/give?
What kind of Sparc10? They've used that designation for a few systems.
If its an Ultrasparc 10 and an Ultrasparc 5, both of those take IDE
CD-ROM drives, same as a PC. Those are a dime a dozen now?
If its a Sparcstation 10, then yes you'd need a SCSI sun bootable
CD-ROM, or another one to netboot off of. But even so, thats like a $1
on eBay. Go for Pioneer or Plextor. Both of them typically had a
jumper to select 512 byte block mode. I found a few Sun external ones
for $5 on eBay. Searching for SCSI CD-ROM gave 477 hits?
