Hi Nick,

I don't think I've ever tested Solaris with OpenBIOS SPARC32 (although I 
have been told we may have some Solaris 8 CDs lying around somewhere if 
they would do the job?). Is this just an update, or are you reporting a 
regression? If it's a regression, can you do an SVN bisect?


ATB,

M-D.
