As I've told Paul, I have one SS20 with a 150 MHz HyperSPARC in it.  Because
it is our main local caching name server box (and a few other things), I'm
loathe to bring it down for any length of time, but I certainly don't have
any problem with test-booting kernels to see if they keep dying at the same
place early on in the boot cycle on the thing.
