    Once I got past the bugs in yast2 (by using yast1) on a serial console
    install, things moved somewhat smoothly on a SPARC 1+ (it was lying around
    not being used). I can say it's a bit pokey, but that's to be expected.
    The load is around .5 with a somewhat default install. My next trick will
    be to turn off services I know we don't need. I have a SPARC IPC acting
    as a backup secondary nameserver running a flavor of BSD - its typical
    load is under .3, for comparison.
