[rescue] SS1000E Solaris support?

[Ethan Hawke]

Yes, the SS1000 and SC2000 are architecturally identical and use the same
chipset, the SS2000 boards are just physically larger. There would be some
area (perhaps the JTAG EEPROM on the clock board) that would be used to
determine which system the firmware has booted on.
 
Cheers,
Ethan
