Solaris 2.5.1 does not have support for the UltraSPARC IIe
microprocessor, USB keyboard or mice, or several of the other devices
on the Sun Blade 100 motherboard.

Solaris 8 10/00 or later is required and 32-bit kernels will not work.
If you need 32-bit kernels or any earlier Solaris release then you're
pretty much stuck with the Ultra 5 or Ultra 10.
