SparcStation 20 emulator
Hello,
Just wanted to let interested people know that we've recently released a Linux freeware version of SparcStation 20 emulator. It emulates SS20 with some basic peripherals: a single SPARC V8 32bit CPU, up to 512MB RAM, an NCR53C94 SCSI controller, 2 serial lines, disks, a network adapter, and a CDROM.
OS version supported: SunOS 4.1, Solaris 2.5 - 7 (2.3 and 2.4 are not supported at the moment).
Download is available form Stromasys website (registering your email would be required).
Sorry if this is not on topic.
Best regards,
Greg

Hi,
I got hold of a SUN SPARCstation Voyager today, but I don't have the root password. I made a linux bootdisk and tried to sue that to edit the shadow file, but it comes up saying "magic number" (since it's not a UFS floppy).
I haven't got any recovery disks for it, and no documentation.

Hey guys...hopefully this will be a fairly easy one.
I've got an old SPARCstation 5 running Sun 5.5.1 that I just hooked up to the network so that I can run HP OpenView. The box is working fine, but it is broadcasting as a boot server. In other words, when co-workers come in and get ready to log... (2 Replies)

I apologize in advance that this is probably more of a hardware question than a unix/software one.
I've got a seemingly brand-new sparcstation 20 that came with 2 memory modules and that's about it.
I've added a new 2 GB HDD and a VSIMM Onboard SX Graphics module.

I am away from my Unix sparcstation and need to work on it remotely via a

there are some commands to enable this, but can't remember them. (6 Replies)

We have an ancient Sparcstation 5 for those few clients that still run SunOS or Solaris. After the last power outage (4 years ago?) we never turned it back on. It had been making some unpleasant noises back then, too.
Now we need it again and it won't boot.

kcemu-remote
KCEMU-REMOTE(1) General Commands Manual KCEMU-REMOTE(1)
NAME
kcemu-remote - A remote controller for the KC 85/4 Emulator
SYNOPSIS
kcemu-remote command [param1=value1] [param2=value2] ...
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the kcemu-remote command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because
the original program does not have a manual page.
kcemu-remote can control an already running KCemu by sending commands. The communication is done via the X Window System and is network
transparent as long as the X Window Display can be accessed.
EXAMPLE COMMANDS
emu-reset
Reset the emulator.
emu-power-on
Power-On Reset the emulator.
emu-quit
Exit the emulator.
kc-image-load filename=/absolute/path/to/imagefile
Load a program into the emulator (if the given file is not found a filerequester will pop up).
kc-image-run filename=/absolute/path/to/imagefile
Just like kc-image-load but tries to start the program after it is loaded.
floppy-attach filename=/absolute/path/to/diskimage
The only way to change disk images for now (the user interface is not functional ;-)).
keyboard-replay test=text_to_insert
Send the text to the emulator.
BUGS
There is no error handling and it's not possible to specify an emulator instance if more than one emulator is running.
