First, thanks to everyone who has worked to get OpenBIOS up to its current functional level over the past couple of years. I'm using Solaris 9 on OpenBIOS with pretty good success these days, which is awesome.
I do have a question about Qemu, OpenBIOS, and the Solaris hostid. It seems that, currently, when booting Solaris with Qemu, the host ID is set to "80000000." As far as I can tell, this isn't near correct - according to all of the documentation I've read, the host ID should be calculated based on the machine type, and some portion of the MAC address. This may be the wrong forum in which to ask this, but I'm wondering if someone could shed light on why it shows up that way, and if there's a way in OpenBIOS via the PROM/NVRAM data to set the host ID to something a little bit closer to normal?
Thanks! -Nick
