Nope, they all need memory.  Got to have scratch space to get the FORTH

You've probably figured this out already, but in case you haven't the SS2
requires a different SIMM installation order than the other pizzabox sun4c
systems.  Each bank consists of every fourth slot, not four contiguous
slots.
