I have been working with Linux since 1997. So I am familiar with UNIX.
Nowadays I work with open SuSE, Mandriva 2007 and Fedora Core. All of them work fine.

Solaris should work if the installation were smooth.

When I studied networking, it was Solaris.

I mean school used Solaris to teach UNIX because Solaris is the dominant UNIX flavor in this country. School used Sun SPARC computers.

We installed Solaris as a part of the course and worked with it too.
So I am not new to Solaris.

However, I have never ever work with Solaris after learning at school.
I tried to install it some 8 months ago. There were problems and I gave up.
I want to install Solaris and work with it.
I need your help.

DESCRIPTION
