That is an ATX version of the Blade 100.
Boot kernel.old and apply the patch below.  If you have time please also
download and try to boot
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org:/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/Feb_2006/5.3-STABLE-SNAP001-spa
rc64-miniinst.iso
If it fails to boot on your machine, please report to re at freebsd.org that
FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE is not going to support your machine.

----------------------------------

I'm experiencing similar symptoms on an Enterprise 250 (which is an Ultra II
400MHz, sun4u - from memory, sorry) after doing a cvsup (to RELENG_5) and
'make buildworld' etc.,  on a machine installed from the 5.3-RELEASE ISO at
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/sparc64/ISO-IMAGES/5.3/

Is this patch suitable for this system also?

Regards,
James
