What 2.4.0 kernels? If you need NFS server, and you've got a Sun machine,
I'd stick with Solaris until 2.4.0 comes out (not -testx).
You might have considered that, so I'd be interested why you think it's
better to run on a devel kernel instead of Solaris?
In any case, I'd consider Debian seriously. (They use a 2.2 kernel for
potato, but that's compilable away.) I'm sure potato, AKA Debian 2.2,
supports both Alphas and Suns (as well as some minority platforms)
