[SunHELP] Ultra 1 trouble installing Solaris 9

[Geoff Reed]

if your ultra1 has a fan on the CPU, make sure that it's spinning, if there 
is no fan, it should have a TALL heatsink. the fans frequently fail on 
ultra 1's and the SUN fix for that was a Field Change order that swapped 
out the mainboard for one with a taller heatsink, and thin plastic ducting 
that made it where the power-supply fans supplied the moving air (pulled 
air through the heatsink)
