Neal,

  This is all that dmesg says:

Apr 24 05:13
SunOS Release 4.1.2 (SPARCBOOK) #1: Tue Aug 3 20:13:56 BST 1993
Copyright (c) 1983-1991, Sun Microsystems, Inc.
Copyright (c) 1991-1993, Tadpole Technology.

Memory = 32768K
Ethernet address = 0:0:83:a2:11:5
WARNING: TOD clock not initialized -- CHECK AND RESET THE DATE!

Happen to know how to reset the date in sunos? I tricked date -s and date
'timestring here' but neither worked.

I think someone recently was trying to run net on a sb2 and found that it
wasn't recongizing the p9000 framebuffer. I could be mixing it up with
some other, non 3gs/3gx model of machine

what's a dmesg from sunos look like on it)

I'll say it again... openbsd runs great on sparcbooks. I was looking at
netbsd/sparc's page earlier... does netbsd support pcmcia on the sparcbook
now? we're still missing that in open

regards,

neal
