Boot Blade 1000 or Blade 100 into 32-bit mode OS

Hi,

   I am just wondering whether you can boot Blade 1000 or Blade 100 into
32-bit mode Solaris 8?  I know it can be done on Ultra-10 with Solaris 8
installed, but how about Blade 1000/100?  Has anyone done this before?  Are
we issuing the same boot command?  Your help is really appreciated.

Thanks.

You cannot; there is no 32 bit support for the Blade 100/1000

Nope.  The Blades do not support 32 bit.

Wonder no more.  You can't.
