I think that is enabling the original ultrasparcs in Sol 10? I dont' remember anything like that in older solaris. I have 3x SS1000 I'd like to get running in various states of disrepair myself. I do have a whole chunk of ram and enough SM81s to fully populate one though.
Also sun4d requires a bunch of stuff that probably got dropped going from 8 forward (like the LDOM support for 32bit is different than later suns as the supersparcs don't have virtualization extensions so probably 8 really is a hard number if you want it to be functional.)
Supposedly Linux can run in an LDOM on sun4d but probably not natively unless it were a 2.2-2.4 kernel.
