Use NFS to Access Solaris Files
In Red Hat Linux 9, you must use NFS to access Solaris files, since SunFSD does not
work with Linux.
Physical Networking is Only Supported Network
Option
In Red Hat Linux 9, the SunPCi III software comes with physical Ethernet
networking enabled by default. You must use physical networking with Linux since
virtual networking is not supported and will not work with Linux in this release.
This is a known issue and is currently under investigation.
Cannot Copy Graphics Between Solaris and Linux
In Red Hat Linux 9, graphics cannot be copied between Solaris and Linux or Linux
and Solaris. You can use the options of cut, copy, and paste between Solaris and
Linux for text, but not graphics.
