[rescue] Upgrade Solaris8 from MicroSPARC to UltraSPARC

[Ken Hansen]

You plan on pulling the HD out of an SS/5 and slide it into an UltraSPARC?

Uhm, no - you must re-install Solaris on the target machine. These machines
are *too* different...

Assuming you do not have some secret way of swapping an Ultra 440 MHz CPU
into an SS/5...
