2.1 Other platforms

Solaris 2.5.1 included support for the PowerPC platform (PowerPC Reference Platform), but the port was can- celed before the Solaris 2.6 release.[22] In January 2006 a community of developers at Blastwave began work on a PowerPC port which they named Polaris.[23] In October olvwm with OpenWindows on Solaris 2006, an OpenSolaris community project based on the Blastwave efforts and Sun Labs’ Project Pulsar,[24] which re-integrated the relevant parts from Solaris 2.5.1 into Windows supported both NeWS and X applications, and OpenSolaris,[22] announced its first official source code provided backward compatibility for SunView applica- release.[25] tions from Sun’s older .

Solaris can be installed from various pre-packaged soft- ware groups, ranging from a minimalistic “Reduced Net- work Support” to a complete “Entire Plus OEM". Instal- lation of Solaris is not necessary for an individual to use the system. Additional software, like Apache, MySQL, etc. can be installed as well in a packaged form from sun- freeware[31] and OpenCSW.[32] Solaris can be installed from physical media or a network for use on a desktop or server, or be without installing on a desktop or server.
