Paula,



A quick Google search reveals that SPARC is big-endian while Intel is
little-endian. I think you're going to have to pick a migration method that
doesn't involve cloning the data files. Besides, even if it worked, would
you be confident that some issue wouldn't come back to haunt you in the
future?
