Hi,

I am working in solaris 7 on intel platform. Many vendors offer unix on intel platorm for free or for learning purpose (non-commercial usage) including freebsd,solaris,sco. You can also download solaris 8 for free from sun website. To be in one liner, every vendor in unix is offering the OS on intel platform. As Neo pointed out except IRIX (now they are going to port it for intel platorm also soon ) , every other vendor has unix for intel platform.

As for as your hardware goes, i hope a bare minimum would be sufficient to learn . But it would be great if you have pc with NIC , modem, multimedia kit, application software for unix, so that you can gain knowledge by installing, configuring and maintaining the peripherals . A small network environment with two or more pc's will be great to learn things for networking .

Hope this helps

pset_info

pset_info(1)						      General Commands Manual						      pset_info(1)

NAME

       pset_info - Displays processor set information

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/pset_info

DESCRIPTION

       The pset_info command displays information about processor sets and the processors that are assigned to each set.  Note that a stopped pro-
       cessor is not a member of any processor set, and its processor set identification number is specified as -1. Also, depending on the machine
       architecture, processors may not be numbered consecutively.  That is, a four-processor system may not have a processor with the number 3.

NOTES

       If  a  processor or processor set is queried while it is in transition (for example, processor set destruction or processor assignment), an
       error may be returned from the kernel.  Running the command a second time will result in normal behavior.

EXAMPLES

       The following is an example of the output of the pset_info command:

       number of processor sets on system = 2

       pset_id	# cpus	 # pids   # threads  load_av	created
	 0	   1	    26	     63        0.90	09/21/1994 17:48:42
	 6	   1	    1	     4	       0.21	09/21/1994 23:33:37

       total number of processors on system = 3

       cpu #	running  boot_cpu pset_id  assigned_to_pset
	0	   1	     1	     0	   09/21/1994 17:48:42
	1	   1	     0	     6	   09/21/1994 23:34:06
	2	   0	     0	      -1   09/21/1994 17:48:42
