No links or configuration necesary - if your CPU supports the standard AMD 
or Intel 64-bit extensions, OpenSolaris will automatically detect and run 
in 64-bit mode.

To verify, once you're running, try running isainfo:

  % isainfo -kv
  64-bit amd64 kernel modules

  % isainfo -v
  64-bit amd64 applications
        ahf sse3 sse2 sse fxsr amd_3dnowx amd_3dnow amd_mmx mmx cmov amd_sysc 
        cx8 tsc fpu 
  32-bit i386 applications
        ahf sse3 sse2 sse fxsr amd_3dnowx amd_3dnow amd_mmx mmx cmov amd_sysc 
        cx8 tsc fpu
