Hi Mark,

there is a testing version of Aurora SPARC Linux  that runs on niagara 
machines.  I have it on my T1000.  It is based on FC3  and we are well 
underway towards building the FC6 bits and hopefully things will be in place 
for spot to get anaconda in shape for SPARC this week.  

When it is released it will have Extras as well as core available.

Regards

Dennis
