(Redirected from SPARC)
Introduction to SPARC configurations
The userspace installation for SPARC systems is often comprised of ILP32 rather than LP64 binaries, because they do run somewhat faster. (Compare with http://www.osnews.com/story/5768 ; A similar trend has only recently entered the x86 world as the "x32" mode.)
Availability
Instance is private, because OBS does not properly permit setting public/private on a per-project basis.

Known bugs
- an installer image is currently absent (sort of the last piece in the puzzle)
- zypper does not pick the intuitively-correct architecture at this point
