Depends on the Sun - newer machines with firmware version 3 or newer (
Ultras, Javastation and so on ) are OpenFirmware compliant, older ones
are different but still quite similar. What you'll need to know to get
along is 'cd' on 2.x is 'dev' on OpenFirmware and '.attributes' became
'.properties'.

have fun
