Then it must be quite some time since you've checked... ;-) OpenBSD 3.0 was the first sparc64 release, though not quite as featureful as for sparc. OpenBSD 3.1 came with better supported sparc64 (albeit still not fully complete) and OpenBSD 3.2 (due soon) will support even more. See: http://www.openbsd.org/sparc64.html I had OpenBSD 3.1 briefly installed on my U1/140 and it worked ok - I'm looking forward to 3.2 now.
