Netra-I questions

Hi,

I've come into possession of a Sun Netra i server (actually labelled
NETRA-I-3.1-1150).

When I tried to put Solaris 9 on this beast, the installer complained that
the OBP version (3.1) was insufficient to allow installation of the 64-bit
Operating System. It recommended that I upgrade to OBP version 3.11.1 to
allow the 64-bit thing to happen.

It's probably a bit of an understatement to say that sun.com doesn't have
much to say about Netra-Is. The only OBP image I can find that looks even
slightly compatible is one for Ultra-1 140/170 3.35.0. I conclude this,
beacuse the Netra-I appears to be a re-packaged Ultra 1.

Can anyone tell me for sure whether I'm on the right path, or that I'm about
to make a not-unattractive brick? Replies with URLs for large repositories
of data about these machines would be most appreciated.

If yiu have a Netra i 150 or 170 it is a Ultra 1. (Not E-model)
So the image should be found in patch: 104881-09
