What hardware is supported by Solaris 2.x for Intel?

Solaris x86 is the version that runs on Intel-based PCs and servers.
Requirements vary to release, but generally a 80486 processor or
better is required with an ISA or PCI bus, 16 MB
of memory, and 200-500 MB Disk.
Many multi-processor boards are
supported. You must have a CD-ROM drive or access to NFS over the
network to install and a 1.44 MB floppy disk drive.


The Solaris x86 Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) lists the tested
hardware. However, not all hardware combinations will work.
Also, hardware not listed may work, but are not guaranteed or supported.
The HCL is at:
http://SolDC.Sun.COM/support/drivers/hcl/


For troublesome devices and cards, I find

Solaris 7 (Intel Platform Edition) Device Configuration Guide
at
http://docs.Sun.COM/ab2/coll.214.4/HWCONFIG/@Ab2TocView?

very useful.
(if the link changed, go to
http://docs.Sun.COM,
click on "Installation & Setup," then "Installation Collection,"
then "Device Config. Guide."
You'll also find the HCL and other guides.
