My understanding is that SPARC uses a similar boot architecture to X86.
While there isn't grub, per se, SPARC has a menu file similar to x86's
rpool/boot/grub/menu.lst, called rpool/boot/menu.lst. beadm puts
similar info into this file as it does grub's menu.lst for X86.
I've not seen this file display on bootup; I don't think it is made
visible, but it is there. Perhaps Evan can shed more light on how it is
used.
Thanks,
Jack
