It depends on exactly what you are trying to learn.

CentOS is a very good Linux distribution. Linux is generally open source and support by a vast user community.

Solaris on the other hand is Unix, owned by Oracle and is a big boys operating system, commercially supported, and well capable of running a big financial institution such as a bank. You wouldn't run an operating system in a bank without full commercial support services (unless you are mad).

Learning Solaris, HP-UX, AIX and the like is certainly professional stuff which cannot do you any harm at all.

NAME

       suninstall - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       suninstall

DESCRIPTION

       install-solaris(1M) is now the preferred command for starting and restarting the Solaris Installation program. It should be used instead of
       suninstall. suninstall is symbolically linked to install-solaris.

       suninstall is a forms-based and graphical subsystem for installing the operating system.

       suninstall exists only on the Solaris installation media (CD or DVD) and should only be invoked from there. Refer to the Solaris 10 Instal-
       lation Guide: Basic Installations for more details.

       suninstall allows installation of the operating system onto any standalone system. suninstall loads the software available on the installa-
       tion media. Refer to the Solaris 10 Installation Guide: Basic Installations for disk space requirements.

USAGE

       Refer to the Solaris 10 Installation Guide: Basic Installations for more information on the various menus and selections.
