In reply to Comment 15 (corpse):
" I thought Sun released a Linux based solaris .. i could be wrong ;)"

You are wrong, I'm afraid! Completely wrong.

Sun used to do SunOS (BSD based), then they switched to SysV based Solaris.

They have Solaris for SPARC and Solaris for x86, neither with Linux in them.

They did dabble in SunLinux for their x86 boxes for a while, but realised that there was no value to be added in what they were doing (taking RH Linux and badging it as SunLinux), so they now just support straight x86 Solaris and RedHat Linux x86 on their x86 boxes.

But there is not, nor has there ever been, a Linux-based Solaris. Ever.
