Well, that's the beauty of Debian. It wouldn't take more than a couple weeks to get Debian running on top of a Solaris kernel. In fact, I'm pretty sure that it's been done. The package management for Solaris is miserably simplistic and about a decade out of date. Sun would do itself a favor if it quit bleating about its server room superiority and realize that there is a great deal to be learned and shared with the rest of the world instead of always striking out on its own.
