Anyone tried and successfully used the new Sun servers, Sun Fire X4100, Sun

According to http://www.FreeBSD.org/platforms/sparc.html
  The following systems are unsupported.
    * Any system with an UltraSPARC III or greater processor.
so I'd say it won't work.  (Google for openbsd+ultrasparc for background).



Those Systems are Opteron-based Systems, Codename "Galaxy" from SUN.

As they are brand-new, and some of the early demonstration systems also shipped without CD/DVD-ROM, not many of them have been tested with FreeBSD.

I hope that we get some of them in the next weeks, with some luck with DVD, so that I can have some short test...
