What do you guys think about porting DSL to the SPARC arch?  I have a couple of ultra2's sitting around I'm sure atleast a couple of you guys have a sparc sitting around.  Interested in finding out what DSL could do with it?  I am.. :]

Only problem I see is knoppix, packages are easy to re-compile but how does knoppix play into it..

You can manually install Debian SPARC and choose your packages (fluxbox, etc) to match up with DSL equivalents.  That's about the best you can reasonably do.
