D= on't have access to those machine now. So it is clear that we don't have full sun4v support from above link. And also my main goal is not a sparc machine with FreeBSD. I am planning to= make mpslsi driver endian safe, so I just need either PPC or SPARC FreeBSD= 8-2 support to test my driver. A much thanks for offering such wonderful support. >=20 > Marius
