Anyone here installed OBSD on sparc architecture? More specifically on an Ultra60?

Checking the 3.2 release notes for the sparc64 port ultra 60's are supported but checking through spacr@ reveals that only one ultra60 box has ever successfully been installed. I think I'm gonna try to get it working and publish my notes and then crosspost to sparc@.

Maybe. Thats my plan rioght now anyway.

Well I got OpenBSD 3.2 up and running on it, even complied a couple of packages. I has to dd the miniroot filesystem into the existing solaris swap partition to get it to boot the installer. That seems to have done the trick. Now getting X running and putting something useful on it is another story. We'll see how that goes tmorrow night.
