FYI, Sun approached me a couple of years ago at USENIX about LinuxBIOS/OpenBIOS. I tried following up with them, but to no avail. Maybe now is the time...

Hello from Gregg C Levine
Funny you should be asking that question.
At an event the company called "Boot Camp", they displayed laptops
running Opterons, and Solaris, via the AMD64 code. I have here several
copies of X86, and SPARC Solaris products. Currently there is default
support for AMD64 based systems including their own boxes. This is all
via Solaris 10.

I guess LinuxBIOS+OpenBIOS could help.

Is there special solaris version support Opteron in 64bit?

Has anyone looked at what it would take to get Solaris booting

Linuxbios on Opteron?

If not I might dig around (there is a modified grub - I think that

does

some of the init work; one suspects that because of its heritage

it is

quite BIOS-unencumbered).
