While this patch did not help, I am now able to boot the newer Solaris
kernels on this system.

What I did:

I did replace the 2 Opteron 242 by 2 Opteron 275 borrowed from AMD.

So it looks like newer Solaris versions have problems with older
Opteron chips. I believe that this is womething that needs to be solved.

Is there someone at Sun who still has a system with 2 Opteron 242 CPUs
and who can help to debug this problem at Sun's side?
