I have a Sun Ultra 2 (300 MHz-Dual Processor) with 512 Megs of ram. It presently has an older version of Solaris loaded.
I would like to know if Solaris 10 can be loaded to this machine and the steps involved to do so. If Solaris 10 is not a good choice, would another unix based package such as Debian or Freespire install and run better?

 
The highly versatile Solaris 10 Operating System provides a complete computing environment with minimal hardware requirements.

But YOU could have found this out yourself... Sun Documentation is very good, and do not forget GOOGLE...
