We have a server that runs on Solaris using the sparc CPU.
What we want to do is run linux on sparc.
Is there any distribution that will allow linux to run on a sparc CPU?
The reason is because we want to completely remove the Solaris O/S and install linux. Then install the JVM that runs on Linux using the sparc cpu.
I did look at CentOS, but I couldn't find a release that would run on sparc.
Many thanks for any suggestions,

Debian. See http://www.debian.org/ports/sparc/ for information.
