I'd recommend you check out the trunk and try building it and running the tests on solaris. Then when the tests fail, you can file bug reports (with stack traces) against specific tests. Then -possibly- other people might pick up and fix the problems, or you can fix them one by one, submitting patches to the bugreps as you go. I'm sure the Hadoop team would be happy to have Solaris support, its just a matter of whoever has the need sitting down to do it. -steve
