Sun Ultra 20 M2 workstation with dual-core Opteron 1214 2.2GHz, 2GB memory and 2 FX560 videocards, s/n: 0735FMD01C, f/n: F423466.

NOTE: old clon04 was Sparc-based Ultra 2, it was replaced in September 2007. Old machine's s/n: 739FCA4E, f/n: F413605. That machine is in reserve now, it can be used in case of emergency.

Installations notes:

Sun Ultra 20 M2 requires NVIDIA drivers to be istalled for FX560 videocards. Installation disk arrived along with the machine, it was version 1.4. I downloaded recent (at September 2007) version 1.6A. To install, cd to that disk (or mounted disk image) and follow instructions in README file.

I copied image to /root, mounted by

mkdir /mnt/isoimage
mount -o loop -t iso9660 /root/tools_drivers_1_6a1.iso /mnt/isoimage

and ran drivers/linux/red_hat/install.sh. X configuration procedure can be found in page X server.

NOTE: IF up2date WAS RUN, DRIVERS WILL DISAPPEAR, AND MUST BE REINSTALLED. X configuration should survive.
