I'm about 99% sure that Debian has run 64-bit SPARC kernels for a while
now, just that few packages are compiled for it. Unlike x86, most binaries
are faster as 32-bit code unless they make use of >= 3GB RAM and/or 64-bit
integer calculations. As a result, only stuff like databases, webservers,
or

Hi, Michel
Thanks for sharing your info on running Debian on Sun T5120. I really
appreciate this.
I haven't made the switch yet. I will probably start with running the
test using LDOM since I don't have a physical T5120 for testing.

Hi,
we installed Debian SPARC 6.0.3 on 20 Sun T5120 Enterprise nodes

infiniband cards are very buggy and only work over IP. Problem is that
there are no supported infiniband drivers for Linux/SPARC.
I recommend the Debian install
