Which cards?  What did you get from show-devs and .properties in the OBP
device node?

Cards built on the Symbios reference design (Diamond Fireport 40 Dual,
original Symbios 8751SP, CSC 53c875 cards, etc) will work and are
bootable.  Cards with a broken nonref design (Diamond single, almost all
Tekram cards, etc) will not.

Bruce Adler is the author of the majority of the glm driver code. you can
find him on comp.unix.solaris if you have some really weird questions.
Deja is also filled with examples on which cards work and which don't.
