FreeBSD on Sun Fire V20Z

[Deepak Naidu]

Paul, I have FreeBSD 5.4 running on Sun Fire v20, no issues when installing...
 
 I havent tried FreeBSD 6.0, should not give issue, ensure ur booting from the first CD(I know u may b wright incase...)
 
 You may try FreeBSD 5.4 if it works you can come know why not with 6.0..
 
 Cheers,

It's not sparc hardware.  It's AMD Opterons.
