srvsol1:jacobh> uname -a
SunOS srvsol1 5.4 Generic_101945-61 sun4m sparc

srvsol1:jacobh> prtconf -V
prtconf: illegal option -- V
prtconf [ -v ] [ -p ] [ -F ] [ -P ]


I'm trying to discover the version (or revision) of the boot prom without
rebooting.  I did a
prtconf -v and I got this:

srvsol1:jacobh> prtconf -v
System Configuration:  Sun Microsystems  sun4m
Memory size: 96 Megabytes
System Peripherals (Software Nodes):

SUNW,SPARCstation-5
    System software properties:

        name <MMU_PAGEOFFSET> length <4>
            value <0x00000fff>.

    aliases (driver not attached)
    openprom (driver not attached)

(...rest deleted...)


That last line I think may be the problem.  My questions are:

 -- which driver needs to be loaded and which package is it in
 -- where can I get prtdiag
 -- why does my version of prtconf not allow the -V ? is it just an old
version? How do I get that
version?


Yes, I'm new to sun stuff :)

TIA

Jake
