| i know it's possible using Parallels virtualization, which is full speed, but i' not sure if Boot Camp will let you dual boot. i have heard stories of Linux being installed in a dual boot environment, so i would suppose that it's theoretically possible.

| Maybe he means with Solaris , though I haven't heard of any. Everything runs perfectly with windows, including two-finger scroll and 2 finger right click.

| I haven't tried setting up solaris on a mac specifically - however I thought I'd interject here with another point. Solaris supports EFI natively (Sparc systems use EFI too). Because of this, I would think you wouldn't need boot camp or anything special. Just partition, install, and go ... That would be my guess. Once I get an intel Mac I too plan on installing Solaris 10. |
