You can't do that right now. I've been working on this, but there are
"issues", mostly the lack of a HAL that is compatible with Solaris on
UltraSPARC. We need Sam Leffler to do a custom build for us. I am
trying to get my company to fund the work, but it costs $3200, and right
now we're in a "no-spend" mandate. Hopefully once the purse strings
ease up, we'll get this corrected.
